1 of 13
The death toll from Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte’s war on drugs is showing no sign of easing. More than 6,000 people have been killed in the anti-narcotics drive since he took power six months ago, and many are believed to be vigilante murders, which he has refused to condemn. Here, Orly Fernandez, 64, the operational manager at Eusebio Funeral Services, stands next to empty coffins in Navotas in Metro Manila, the Philippines, Oct. 30, 2016. Fernandez says, "Before, maybe we picked up one body per day. Now we get around two or three bodies a day."
