Definitely. These things look like shipping containers for a reason. Time will tell if the US really did recall them.

That was my immediate suspicion.

This is very strange given how the US usually acts, so I think this is either not true and they didn't remove them at all or Russia only knew and complained about some weapons and the US left the rest of them in the Philippines.
