CPP/NPA: NPA metes blows on 57th IB

From the December 7 edition of the CPP publication Ang Bayan: NPA metes blows on 57th IB

A soldier from the 57th IB was killed and an undetermined number wounded in a firefight with Red fighters of the Herminio Alfonso Operations Command (HAC) at 11:40 a.m. on December 3 in Mt. Makaindos, Barangay Amabel, Magpet, North Cotabato. The soldiers retreated after an hour-long battle, leaving behind their casualties and medical supplies.

Earlier, at around 9:30 a.m. on November 26, the HAC had also figured in a gunbattle with the 10th Special Forces Company (SFC). Three soldiers were killed and six wounded, contrary to AFP reports that there were no casualties on either side. The 57th IB and 10th SFC have been intensifying their abuses as part of their operations to pave the way for the entry of the Hitocho Group of Companies, Dole Philippines’ new investors.
