Security forces attack NPA lairs in Southern Philippines

From the Mindanao Examiner BlogSpot site (Jun 19): Security forces attack NPA lairs in Southern Philippines

Government forces attacked a stronghold of the communist New People’s Army rebels in the southern Philippines, but there were no immediate reports of casualties.

The military offensive targeted the rebels in the province of Agusan del Sur where NPA forces were allegedly preparing to launch fresh attacks. It was unclear how the operations went on or if civilians were affected by the attack.

The NPA, which has been fighting for decades for the establishment of a separate state, previously warned to attack military and police targets in the restive southern region where it has gained foothold in many areas.

There was no statement from the NPA about the latest military offensive.
