Since the beginning of the conflict, the city is constantly bombarded by aircraft. Despite this, the Philippine Army struggles to conquer the areas occupied by terrorists Maute and Abu Sayyaf.
The city of Marawi has a structure suitable for a house-to-house conflict and many buildings are provided with bunkers. Terrorists dug tunnels to move from one area to another of the city, avoiding clashes with the Philippine Army. Many civilians are still trapped in the city and, as reported by the press conferences held by spokesman Col. Jo-Ar Herrera, they are used as human shields.
