"This should be the approach in the drug war for me and the most important objective is to stop the smuggling of illegal drugs into the Philippines,” Marcos said, adding that the newly seized drugs came from outside the country.

Aluminium stocks in London Metal Exchange-approved warehouses are expected to slide in coming months as new bans on Russian-origin metal exclude material produced before April 13, market participants said, potentially pushing LME prices higher. By contrast, more Russian metal heading for China is likely to weigh on prices in Shanghai, which fell on Monday after more than two weeks of gains. The U.S. and Britain on Friday banned the 147-year old LME from allowing Russian aluminium, copper and nickel produced from April 13 to be delivered into its warehouses, a move aimed at shrinking Russian government export revenues that help pay for its war with Ukraine.
