The vicious and brutal ‘war on drugs’ that President Duterte unleashed (see here and here), since the start of his Presidency, continues to ravage Filipino working class communities. In the first five months of his rule, the number of people killed in this campaign has now reached 5,000, whether from police or right wing death squads. Duterte has in the past threatened to prosecute those who stand in the way of this campaign, but recently he has upped the pressure by threatening to kill human rights activists who oppose his war on drugs.
No to the War on Drugs! No to extrajudicial impunity! Stop the killings!
