THOUSANDS OF LUMADS or 260 families from the barangays of of Napnapon, Damulol, Mina, Badiangon and Tibuhol in Palimbang, Sultan Kudarat hurriedly evacuated, unable to bring anything with them, after indiscriminate military bombing and shelling in nearby areas.
On December 9, 5:15 a.m., at least six huge bombs were dropped by two FA-50 fighter jets along the Napnapon River in Barangay Napnapon. At least seven soldiers, including an officer, were killed after being hit by their own bombs. There was no NPA unit in the area when the bombing took place.
On the next day, the military shelled nearby areas 130 times. More than 400 soldiers were continuously deployed in batches by non-stop helicopters flights which disrupted peace in the area.
To defend the masses, the NPA mounted two harassment operations in barangays Napnapon and Mina on December 15 and 16. One soldier was killed and two others were wounded.
