MARAWI CITY — The military continued dropping more bombs, rockets and mortar fires at the remaining positions of Islamic militants in this war-torn city. Lt. Col Jo-Ar Herrera, Joint Task Force Marawi spokesperson, said on Monday, that government troops were still fighting at least 60 gunmen holed in four villages here. Herrera said more than 500 buildings occupied by Maute and Abu Sayyaf were up for clearing by soldiers, as of Monday. “It has come to our attention that some groups and individuals are alleging that there are cases of human rights abuses under martial law but have largely remained unreported.
