A SPARROW (assassination) unit of the Communist Party of the Philippines-New People’s Army-National Democratic Front (CPP-NPA-NDF) has tagged three Cabinet secretaries of the Duterte administration and a ranking official of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) for neutralization.
Heading the list is Interior and Local Government Secretary Eduardo Año who was joined by National Security Adviser Secretary Hermogenes Esperon and Presidential Adviser for Indigenous Peoples’ Concerns Secretary Allen Capuyan.
Also targeted for assassination is AFP Deputy Chief of Staff for Civil-Military Operations Maj. Gen. Antonio Parlade.
It was Parlade who divulged the information during a media forum yesterday held at the DILG-NAPOLCOM building in Quezon City.
According to the AFP official, the central committee of the CPP-NPA-NDF had decided Tuesday night to make him and the three Cabinet officials their top targets through Oplan Hades.
Aside from the Cabinet members and military official, the communist list of targets included five cadres who helped the government in exposing the CPP’s activities.
Parlade said that Oplan Hades is intended to neutralize counter-revolutionaries or those who are against their group.
This is the first time in years that the communists placed the four government people in their list for neutralization, Parlade said.
