LOOK: Marawi Soldiers Celebrate And All Smiles After Hearing The Good News

Despite what President Rodrigo Duterte said that we should not celebrate when the Marawi war comes to an end because it is still a loss for the Philippines, the soldiers in Marawi City couldn't help but show their happiness when they heard the good news.

This was after the Abu Sayyaf leader Isnilon Hapilon and one of the leaders of the ISIS-inspired Maute group, Omar Maute, were killed in clashes with  government troops past midnight on Monday, October 16.

In this photo you'll see soldiers with all smiles and obviously celebrating.

In the next photo, soldiers line up to have their photo taken, with apparent smiles on all their faces.

You can just see the relief and happiness in all their faces. This was posted by a Facebook page Inside Military Forum. Applauding the soldiers and telling them we are proud of them.

The post mentioned that after more than 6 months with 160 casualties and 1000 enemy kills, justice is now served.

It also commended the 4th Light Reaction Company for delivering the final blow.

Clean kills from 4th Light Reaction Company sniper team and rangers from the 3rd Scout Ranger 'Excelior' Battalion got the privilege of delivering the final blow to Isnilon Hapilon and Omar Maute.

Our soldiers can come home to their families. The wives and families will not worry anymore that their husbands might get hurt.

Pinoy Thinking is one with people when we say: Salute and mabuhay to everyone in Marawi.
