Posted to the Kalinaw News Website (Jul 10, 2021): Communist terrorists violate IHL anew
CAMP HERNANDEZ, Dingle, Iloilo — An anti-personnel mine (APM) weighing no less than eight kilograms recovered by the Army’s 61st Infantry “HUNTER” Battalion (61IB) once again proves the communist terrorists’ blatant disregard for human life.
The 301st Infantry “Bayanihan” Brigade strongly condemns the CTG’s continuing violation of International Humanitarian Law that prohibits the use of said device which is capable of inflicting massive casualties indiscriminately for it does not distinguish civilians from combatants.
Hunter Troops recovered the APM with approximately 150 meters of electrical wire on July 07, 2021, at Sitio Parapada, Barangay Lanag Norte, Tubungan, Iloilo, following the revelation of concerned citizens.
Brigadier General Marion R Sison, Commander of the 301st Infantry Brigade, lauded the personnel of the 61IB for their relentless efforts in putting a stop to communist terrorists’ atrocities.
“Malinaw na walang respeto di lamang sa karapatan, kundi sa buhay ng tao ang mga komunistang teroristang ito. Their continued use of the prohibited anti-personnel mine shows that they do not value human life, especially of innocent civilians. It is a blatant violation of the International Humanitarian Law. Walang puwang ang mga teroristang ito sa ating mga komunidad. Sama-sama natin silang ikondena upang tuluyan ng mawakasan ang dahas na dulot ng terorismo,” Brigadier General Sison said.
