Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte announced on Sunday that he will need six more months for his "war on drugs," reports local newspaper the Philippine Daily Inquirer.

“That self-imposed time of three to six months, well, I did not realize how severe and how serious the problem of drug menace [is] in this republic until I became President,” said Duterte during a press conference in Davao City.

"The problem is ... I can’t kill them all," he reportedly said.
