A

with high-powered firearms were spotted by residents of Ormoc
City villages particularly in Sumad
river in Quezon Jr. heading towards the hilly mountain of Kangka Yangkob

established a camp in the area.
Another

high-powered guns were sighted at the vicinity of Fattening Compound, one
kilometer from Mahayag village, this city heading towards the village hub at
