A soldier from the Army's 50th Infantry Battalion was killed
while three of his companions were seriously wounded during an ambush by 10 New
People's Army (NPA) fighters at Barangay Limos, Pinukpuk town, Kalinga Saturday
morning.
The troops were conducting an community outreach program
when fired upon by rebels at 9 a.m.
Chief Insp. Jomarick Felina, Kalinga Provincial Police
Office spokesperson, said the wounded soldiers were brought to the Kalinga Provincial Hospital
for treatment.
The attack came just two days after NPA members also
ambushed government troops in Quirino, Ilocos Sur Thursday night.
Five soldiers were killed and six more were wounded in
Thursday's incident.
