Troopers from the Western Mindanao Command (WMC) recovered
and disarmed three improvised explosive devices (IEDs) off Sacol Island
in Zamboanga City on Saturday.
Major Filemon Tan, WMC spokesperson, said the troops
conducting security patrol recovered the IEDs from a floating and abandoned
boat in the area at around 11:30 a.m.
Seized were three one-liter oil cans, of which two were
packed with gasoline-soaked ammonium nitrate and assorted nails, three
improvised blasting caps and three pieces of 5-inch wires with no batteries.
Tan said the IEDs were disarmed by operatives from the Naval
Special Operations Unit 6.
