'GONE TOO SOON' Children were killed in Duterte's war on illegal drugs. They were 3, 4, 5, 7, 12, 17 years old. They had homework to finish, exams the next day, Mass to attend, and most especially dreams to achieve. Some were asleep, some were getting ready for school. But they were killed and became part of the thousands of Filipinos killed in the bloody war that the previous administration waged.

For them, the search for accountability is inseparable from grief — and from the lives they say were taken too soon. | @AdrianINQ READ MORE: inqnews.net/liveslosttooso…
'NANLABAN’ WATCH: ICC trial lawyer Edward Jeremy raised the term “nanlaban” during the confirmation of charges hearing of former President Rodrigo Duterte.
