Iraqi bomber among killed in recent clash, military confirms

From The Business World (Mar 17 2019): Iraqi bomber among killed in recent clash, military confirms

A BOMBER from Iraq, identified as Abdul Rahman, was one of the 20 terrorists killed in a recent clash with government troops in Maguindanao, the military confirmed on Sunday.

Philippine Army 6th Infantry Division commander Major General Cirilito E. Sobejana told reporters that Rahman, whom he initially described as “Arab,” is most likely a bomber and a member of a group that trains local terrorists.

“Most likely he is a bomber. He is part of the group which carries technologies from where they train. So this group is responsible for training our local terrorists,” Mr. Sobejana said in mixed English and Filipino.

The military is still validating how and when the killed Iraqi entered the country.

Mr. Sobejana also said that they are still on the lookout for five other foreign terrorists, including Mohammad Ali alias Muawiyah, a senior Jema’ah Islamiyah member.
