MANILA, Philippines – Another blast rocked Cotabato City Saturday morning, leaving one person injured.

Police said 18-year-old Ismael Ebrahim suffered minor shrapnel wounds after a grenade exploded in front of the ARMM Regional Ports Management Authority office past 7 a.m.

Ebrahim was rushed to the hospital for treatment.

Earlier, an improvised explosive device (IED) made from 81mm mortar was recovered by authorities along Governor Gutierrez Avenue.

An IED also exploded in Governor Gutierrez Avenue last Thursday, leaving 3 wounded.

Cotabato City Mayor Japal Guiani Jr. said the series of explosions are politically motivated and aim to destroy the image of the city. - Report from Jasper Acosta, ABS-CBN News Central Mindanao
