Philippine military officials said Thursday one of their airstrikes meant to hit Islamic State-linked militants in the southern city of Marawi instead killed 10 soldiers and wounded seven others. "The coordination was not properly done so we hit our own people," Defense Secretary Delfin Lorenzana told reporters.
The errant bombing was one of several airstrikes the military conducted on Wednesday as troops on the ground tried to dislodge the militants.
The violence in Marawi erupted last week when security forces tried to arrest Isnilon Hapilon, the so-called leader of Islamic State in the Philippines, and the fighters responded by taking over parts of Marawi and taking hostages.
Hapilon is one of the most wanted terrorists listed by the United States, which has posted a $5 million reward for his arrest.
The fighting in Marawi has killed at least 95 militants, 30 security forces and 19 civilians. Lorenzana said Thursday eight of the militants killed were foreigners, including Chechen and Arab fighters.
菲律宾军方官员星期四表示,他们在南部城市马拉维实施的一次针对与伊斯兰国组织有关的激进分子的空袭,却导致10名军人丧生,7人受伤。菲律宾国防部长洛伦扎纳对记者说,“没有正确协同,导致我们打了自己人。”
此次误炸是菲律宾军方星期三实施的几次空袭轰炸行动中的一起。目前菲律宾地面部队正在努力清剿激进分子。
马拉维市的暴力活动是上周发生的,当时安全部队试图逮捕所谓的菲律宾伊斯兰国组织的头目哈皮伦,作为回应,该组织的武装分子夺取了马拉维的部分地区并劫持人质。
哈皮伦是美国最想抓获的通缉恐怖分子。美国悬赏500万美元捉拿哈皮伦。
在马拉维的战斗已经导致至少95名激进分子、30名安全部队士兵,以及19名平民丧生。洛伦扎纳防长星期四表示,被击毙的激进分子中有8人是外国人,其中包括车臣和阿拉伯人。
