Liberated?
editOct 17 Philippines' Duterte declares liberation of Marawi from ISIS-affiliated militants. Apparently it is not quite over; some militants are still at large & still have hostages, but they are few, key leaders are dead, & the military think the rest is just "mopping up".
I do not think we should remove the warning yet, but it may need updating soon. Pashley (talk) 19:31, 20 October 2017 (UTC)
- Does anyone have up-to-date info? I'm in another part of the country & have heard a variety of rumours, but nothing trustworthy. Pashley (talk) 03:29, 28 December 2017 (UTC)
- I think that if/when it happens, it would be fairer to use the word "recaptured" than "liberated". Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:55, 28 December 2017 (UTC)
