2003 Davao City ferry terminal bombing

The Davao City ferry terminal bombing was a terrorist attack that occurred on the evening of April 2, 2003 at the Sasa wharf section of the Port Of Davao in Mindanao, the Philippines. It was believed to be carried out by members of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF), an Islamist group fighting against the Manila government for an autonomous region in the southern Philippines. Authorities also suspected members of the jihadist pan-Islamist militant organization Jemaah Islamiyah of involvement in the attack. The bombing, which occurred a few weeks after a similar fatal terrorist attack on the nearby Davao International Airport, killed 17 civilians and injured over 50 others.
