MANILA: The Philippines is still seeking clarification from the Pentagon about a secret US propaganda operation that aimed to cast doubt among Filipinos about Chinese vaccines at the height of the COVID pandemic, a foreign ministry official said on tuesday.

It began under former President Donald Trump and ended months after President Joseph Biden took office.
