From the Philippine News Agency (Aug 2): 4 more rebels surrender in Davao del Norte

Tired of the incessant fighting, four more members of the New People's Army (NPA) voluntarily surrendered to 10th Infantry Division units in Davao del Norte last Friday.

This was disclosed by 1st Lt. Alexander Cabales, 10th Infantry Division spokesperson, in a statement Sunday.

He said the rebels, who turned themselves to military authorities in Sitio Patil, Barangay Gupitan, Kapalong, Davao del Norte, also surrendered their weapons which include an M-16 automatic rifle, two AK-47s, and an improvised explosive device.

Also surrendered were medical items and paraphernalia.

Their surrender was made possible through the initiative of tribal leaders of Langila-Manobo Tribe in Kapalong.
