BEIJING Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte told soldiers last week to shoot female rebels in their genitals, the latest of several violent, misogynistic remarks.
Addressing a group of former communist rebels on Wednesday, Duterte, who served as a mayor before becoming president, appeared to encourage the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) to target women in conflict.
Tell the soldiers. Theres a new order coming from the mayor. We wont kill you. We will just shoot your vagina, he said.
If there is no vagina, it would be useless, Duterte continued, according to local media reports, appearing to imply that women are useless without their genitals.
The presidents communications office included the comment in the official transcript from the event but replaced the word vagina with a dash.
Dutertes presidency has been defined by violence and often violently misogynistic language.
Since he came to power on a promise to kill all the drug users and dealers in the country, thousands of Filipinos have been shot dead, prompting the International Criminal Court to open a preliminary examination.
