Philippine forces found corpses in the streets of the southern city of Marawi on May 28, including at least eight civilians who appeared to have been executed, as soldiers battled a weakened but still forceful group of militants linked to the Islamic State group.
The crisis in Marawi, home to some 200,000 people, has grown increasingly dire as the militants show unexpected strength, fending off attack helicopters, armored vehicles and scores of soldiers.
