A bomb exploded on a bridge in Datu Hoffer Ampatuan town, Maguindanao around 8 a.m. Thursday but caused no casualties and failed to destroy the structure.
The improvised explosive device was planted on the bridge between the villages of Labu Labu and Dicalangun that links Maguindanao to the Sultan Kudarat-General Santos City highway.
Thursday’s explosion is the second to hit Maguindanao since Monday, when a bomb exploded in Talayan town. Another IED was found along the highway in Guindulungan Tuesday morning.
No one has claimed responsibility for the blasts or planting the explosives. While authorities said they suspect the Bangsamoro Islamic Freedom Fighters, the spokesman of the group, which broke away from the Moro Islamic Liberation Front, has denied responsibility.
