A harassment team of the New People’s Army under the Western Agusan Norte-Agusan Sur Sub-regional Command attacked operating troops of the 26th IB-PA and Bagani Force in Km. 50, Brgy. Binicalan, San Luis, Agusandel Sur, in August 9, 2014, around 4:30 PM. Two were killed and several others were wounded among the reactionary forces while the NPA attacking unit suffered no casualties.
The said troops were then carelessly and noisily resting, confident that their massive operations have scared away the NPA units in the area. They were completely unaware that harassment teams were also sent by the NPA, who were more familiar with the terrain and enjoy the deep and wide support from the people in the area. When the Red fighters shot the huddled enemy troops, two were killed while an undetermined number were wounded. The NPA harassment team swiftly withdrew after the incident.
This 26th IB platoon was only one of six columns now launching combat operations in mountainous areas of San Luis, Talacogon and La Paz, Agusandel Sur. They seek to drive the NPA away to ensure the relentless operations of existing companies and plantations in these municipalities. The mercenary AFP now steps up its operations against the revolutionary movementto protect the economic interests of the plundering foreign capitalists. Just last August 9, the NPA encountered other troops of the 26th IB and SCAA guarding Provident Tree Farm Incorporated in Zelovia, Talacogon.
Meanwhile, another unit of the NPA launched a harassment operation against reactionary troops in SitioAfga, Brgy. Olave, Buenavista, Agusandel Norte on the same day. We will publicize the complete details as soon as we receive the combat report from the NPA operating unit.
