During the first Association of Southeast Asian Nations and Gulf Cooperation Council Summit on Friday, Marcos told leaders that the Philippines is “deeply concerned” about the rising number of victims and the people’s safety in light of the ongoing armed conflict.
— President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. is hoping for de-escalation of tensions and for all parties to"stop all violence" in Israel and Gaza as the war between Israel and militant group Hamas rages on.
