A BOMB exploded outside a church in the southern Philippines during Sunday morning Mass yesterday, killing five people and wounding 45, an army spokesman said.
Rogue Muslim rebels were suspected of placing the bomb near a food stall outside the church in Cotabato City, said Colonel Jonathan Ponce. The device was detonated when an army truck passed, he added.
