Philippines says no evidence of 'terrorist training'

Bangkok Post

December 18, 2025

The Philippines said yesterday there was no evidence that the country was being used for terrorist training, a day after it was revealed the men behind Australia's Bondi Beach mass shooting had spent November on a southern island known for Islamist insurgencies.

"[President Ferdinand Marcos] strongly rejects the sweeping statement and the misleading characterisation of the Philippines as the Isis training hotspot," presidential spokeswoman Claire Castro said at a press briefing.

"No evidence has been presented to support claims that the country was used for terrorist training," she added, reading from a National Security Council statement.

"There is no validated report or confirmation that individuals involved in the Bondi Beach incident received any form of training in the Philippines."
