In the Philippines, a group of Christians were rounded up by
Muslims and shot at point-blank range. Twenty one were killed, and 8 were
severely injured. In another case, teachers and students at a Christian
teaching school were held hostage by the Abu Sayyaf extremist group. They
demanded that, in order to be released, the hostages need to remove crosses
from their school, stop teaching Christian values, and declare the state they
lived in as a Muslim state. Twenty four hostages were released but twenty nine
remained. When the rest tried to escape, four escapees were shot in their
emission.
