MANILA, Philippines — Pinag-iingat ng gobyerno ng Amerika ang kanilang mga kababayan mula sa ISIS-Philippines at Maute terror group na idineklara na nilang mga terorista.
Binansagang “foreign terrorist organizations” ng United States State Department ang ISIS-Philippines pati na rin ang ISIS-West Africa at ISIS-Bangladesh.
“The group’s property and interests in property subject to US jurisdiction are blocked. In addition, it is a crime to knowingly provide, or attempt or conspire to provide, material support or resources to the organizations,” pahayag ng US state department.
Tinukoy ng Amerika ang ginawang panggugulo ng Maute terror group sa Marawi City na tumagal ng limang buwan.
Kinategorya ang Maute terror group bilang “specially designated global terrorists.”
“Today’s actions are a critical step in degrading ISIS’ global network and denying its affiliates the resources they need to plan and carry out terrorist attacks,” sabi ni Nathan Sales na coordinator for counterterrorism.
Samantala, ikinatuwa naman ng Department of Foreign Affairs ang naging hakbang ng US state department.
“Terrorism is a global and regional challenge and cooperation with key allies is critical in averting terrorist operations,” sabi ni DOF Undersecretary Ernesto Abella.
