Three New People’s Army guerrillas were killed in a clash with troops of the Army’s 85th Infantry Battalion in Quezon province Wednesday night.
The troops, led by 1st Lieutenant Harold Bigtas, were on patrol when they chanced on the rebels in Barangay Liwayway, Mauban town around 7:14 p.m. and engaged them in a 30-minute gun battle.
The soldiers, who suffered no casualties, also seized three M16 rifles, a Baby Armalite and a grenade launcher.
The Army and police have launched operations to hunt down the retreating rebels, said to be from a unit that operates in Laguna province.
