President Rodrigo Duterte on October 17 said that Chinese sniper rifles killed terrorist leaders Isnilon Hapilon and Omar Maute before dawn of October 16.
“China, dalawang beses na naglipad dito para sa [paghatid ng military aid]. ‘Yung sniper nila was of great help. ‘Yung mahaba nila na sniper [rifles]. ‘Yun ang nakakuha kay ano – ‘yung dalawa – madaling araw,” Duterte said during the Federalism Summit and oath-taking ceremony new members of PDP-Laban at the Capitol Convention Center in Pili, Camarines Sur.
“‘Yun ang nakakuha, it’s about a distance of about one kilometer. Isang kilometro ‘yun eh. Eh walang hangin pagka umaga. ‘Yun ang nagamit natin,” he noted.
“Malaking tulong ‘yung binigay ng [China],” he said.
China already delivered 2 batches of firearms to the Philippine government all for free. China first transferred 3,000 rifles with 5 million ammunition and 90 sniper rifles with 800,000 ammunition in June.
The second batch was this month which included 3,000 units of rifles; 3,000,000 rounds of assorted ammunition; and dozens of sniper scopes.
