US and Australian intelligence services have warned the Philippine government that a terrorist attack is imminent.

But I’m not sure who the “terrorists” could be, since according to the BBC there are only “militants” in the area.

The US and Australia have warned of an imminent terrorist attack in the Philippines, where seven hostages were this week beheaded by militants.

In an advisory to its citizens the US embassy said an attack could take place anywhere on Mindanao, in the south of the Philippines.

It said intelligence suggested an attack might happen “over the next several days”.

Philippine troops have been fighting Islamic militants for months.
