Strongly condemning the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) for its “terroristic and bloodthirsty bombing” of a civilian community, Ka Juanito Magbanua, spokesperson of the Apolinario Gatmaitan Command of the New People’s Army Negros Island Regional Operation Command (AGC-NPA), also commented on the AFP’s unparalleled desperation “in achieving its pipe-dream of destroying the revolutionary movement before the end of the tyrannical Duterte regime.”
Last December 1, the AFP’s 3rd Infantry Division launched an early morning air strike using FA-50 jet fighters, and ground artillery as well, in Sitio Burak, Barangay Alimodias, Miag-ao, Ilo-Ilo allegedly against a New People’s Army (NPA) unit.
Magbanua pointed out that the AFP is squandering government funds.
He emphasized the futile spending on billions of pesos worth of bombs, ammunition and canyons and combat operations while the people are suffering from extreme hunger and poverty due to skyrocketing prices of basic commodities, increase of foreign debt, corruption in government and the Covid-19 problem.
Meantime, the National Democratic Front (NDF) – Negros called on the international community, local human rights advocates and pro-people government officials to conduct an independent and impartial investigation of the incident.
“We must not allow the US-Duterte regime to coverup the Miag-ao bombing and remain blameless for such terror,” Ka Bayani Obrero, NDF-Negros spokesperson, stated.
He also urged soldiers and officials under the 3ID “who are truly peace-loving and sincere in protecting the people” to speak up and expose “the criminal acts of the 3ID and its brigades and battalions.”
‘Big mistake’
For its part, the AGC-NPA called it a “big mistake of the bloodthirsty regime” if it expects that using advanced war armaments can subdue the people and the armed movement.
“While a semifeudal and semicolonial system that generates oppression and exploitation persists in society, the people will continue to persevere and wage armed struggle,” Magbanua said.
He said further that the worsening brutality of the reactionary government gives the people more reason to find their courage to resist and defend their rights.
“It likewise gives valiant Red fighters of the NPA the determination to launch the people’s war to defend the interest and welfare of the people,” he concluded.###
