    BOMBING EXPLOSION INSIDE DIMAPORO GYMNASIUM

    On December 3, 2023, a bomb exploded inside the Dimaporo Gymnasium at Mindanao State
    University-Main Campus during a Sunday mass, resulting in four fatalities and numerous injuries.

    According to CCTV footage obtained by the Armed Forces of the Philippines, two individuals
    raised suspicion. At 6:09am, a man wearing a black hoodie and red cap with white front panel
    approached the Dimaporo Gymnasium entrance, later retracing his steps towards the side of the gym at
    6:13 am. Subsequently, at 7:03 am, another man, dressed in white polo and khaki cap, carrying a black
    bag, appeared on the footage walking towards the gym. The man in black followed him, though they
    took different pathways. At 7:11 am, the man in white, now without the black, was seen holding a
    suspicious item resembling a detonator in his hand as he walked back to the side of the gym, followed
    by the man in black. They disappeared from the CCTV’s view, and a minute later, at 7:12 am, the bomb
    exploded.

    In response to the explosion, nearby individuals rushed to aid those affected, providing free
    rides to the hospital downtown. Law enforcement officers entered the crime scene to assist and conduct
    investigations, while unauthorized individuals were kept away to ensure the inspection proceeded
    smoothly. Additional law enforcement units were alerted and mobilized to provide support.

    Following the incident, the Mindanao State University, through the office of the MSU-System
    President, released an official statement suspending classes until further notice. Additional security
    personnel were deployed to safeguard the campus, and collaboration with local government units and
    law enforcement authorities was emphasized to investigate the incident and bring the perpetrators to
    justice.

    Furthermore, authorities from different municipalities provided free transportation for MSU
    constituents wishing to return to their respective hometowns. Several organizations and the university
    colleges initiated assistance programs for those affected by the incident.

    Nevertheless, despite the swift and coordinated response, the impact of the explosion
    continued to resonate within the campus and across social media platforms. Many students residing in
    university dormitories opted to return to their hometowns, while families, friends, and sympathizers of
    the victims, particularly those who lost their lives, conveyed their profound grief and heartfelt
    condolences online. Calls for justice echoed among the affected community members, directed towards
    the university authorities. Additionally, numerous official statements condemning this act of terrorism
    were issued, underscoring the collective outrage and demand for accountability.

    Building upon these events, recent reports have confirmed that the alleged mastermind behind
    the deadly bombing at Mindanao State University (MSU) in Marawi City last December has been
    apprehended. Khadafi Mimbesa, also known as “Engineer,” served as the amir or leader of Dawlah
    Islamiyah – Maute Group. The Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) disclosed in a statement that
    Mimbesa’s demise was further validated by testimonies from a surrendered terrorist known as KHATAB,
    a significant figure within the DI-Maute Group, who surrendered to the 2 nd Mechanized Brigade on
    February 11. This significant development underscores the ongoing efforts to dismantle terrorist
    networks and bring justice to the victims of the MSU bombing.
