MANILA, Philippines — As the nation observed All Saints’ Day yesterday, labor group Federation of Free Workers (FFW) urged the people to also remember and pray for those who died in the bloody crackdown against illegal drugs.
“We remember the victims of the drug war by the Duterte administration and its other human rights violations,” the FFW said in Filipino in a statement.
The FFW noted that at least 6,000 people were killed in the drug war initiated by then president Rodrigo Duterte.
The group encouraged people to pray for the souls of those who died in the drug war and that justice for their deaths can be attained.
