Short firefight ensued after which enemies scampered to different direction.
"We relentlessly operate to protect the people of Sulu from the inhumanity of the local terrorists," said Brig. Gen. Ignatius Patrimonio, 1102nd Brigade Commander.
While scouring the area, operating troops recovered one M16 rifle, one bandoleer, eight short magazines, 430 rounds of 5.56mm live ammunition, two upper PNP uniforms, one jungle hammock, and one handcuff.

Troops continue to pursue the fleeing enemies.
"I would like to extend my commendation to all the soldiers who continue showing moral strength to safeguard the people from the enemies of the state," said Lt. Gen. Cirilito Sobejana, WestMinCom Commander.
"Let us continue to pray for each and everyone's guidance and protection as we fight against the invisible enemy, corona virus, and the local and communist terrorist groups in the region," Lt. Gen. Sobejana added.
