“I urge the authorities to look deeply at the reason why the bombings happened, especially considering the whole island of Mindanao is presently under martial law, and to bring the perpetrators to justice,” Binay said in a statement.

“I am one with the Filipino people in condemning the bombing incidents in Isulan, Sultan Kudarat and in Masbate City,” she added.

Binay then extended condolences to the bereaved family members of the attack and called on the public to be vigilant at all times.
