Here are the latest developments from the Philippines, from the health condition of President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr to updates on the impeachment cases involving the President and Vice President Sara Duterte.
Key Points
- Malacañang confirmed that President Marcos Jr was diagnosed with diverticulitis, an inflammation of small pockets in the large intestine; this may have been caused by extreme fatigue and stress.
- Despite the President’s condition, hearings on two impeachment complaints filed in the House of Representatives against him are continuing.
- The Supreme Court has upheld its earlier ruling declaring the impeachment complaint against Vice President Sara Duterte unconstitutional, or contrary to the law.
