From the Mindanao Examiner (Nov 1): MILF, MNLF clash in North Cotabato
Two warring groups of Moro Islamic Liberation Front and Moro National Liberation Front clashed on Monday in the town of Makilala and sparked an exodus of civilians in the village called Kidama.
There was no immediate report of casualties on both sides, but the fighting between MILF Commander Tony Pulalon and MNLF leader Tato Manial had been going on for years. Pulalon attacked the group of Manial triggering a battle that forced villagers to flee to safer areas.
Both groups had been fighting over vast track of land and control of power in the town. It was not immediately known why the military and police failed to prevent the clashes.
The MILF and MNLF did not issue any statement.
