From the Philippine Star (Jul 5): 4 troopers hurt in Agusan blast
At least four Army troopers were wounded when an improvised explosive device (IED) believed planted by New People’s Army (NPA) guerrillas went off in Loreto, Agusan del Sur yesterday.
The soldiers, who belong to the Army’s 26th Infantry Battalion, were brought to the nearby Patin-ay Hospital for treatment.
The Armed Forces Eastern Mindanao Command said the troopers were responding to a report about the presence of armed men in Barangay Binucayan.
Civilians informed the military that NPA rebels, who were wounded in an earlier encounter in Veruela town, were brought by their colleagues to the village.
The military recovered three IEDs, electrical wires, five liters of gasoline, backpacks, raincoats and bullet shells from the site.
