MALAYBALAY CITY (Jan. 07, 2024) – Personnel from the 1003rd Infantry (Raptor) Brigade of the 10th Infantry (Agila) Division (10ID) successfully seized three high-powered rifles and several war materials from the New People’s Army (NPA) during an armed encounter on January 5, 2024, at Sitio Mahayahay, Barangay Cawayan, Quezon, Bukidnon
According to the 1003rd IB, the captured items included three M16 rifles, two magazines with ammunition, eight backpacks, medical paraphernalia, food supplies, clothing, other war materials, and subversive documents.
After conducting a focused military operation in the area, the 1003rd IB, led by Brig. General Marion T. Angcao, retrieved the aforementioned materials.
The said items were owned by the Communist Terrorist Group (CTG), specifically the Sub-Regional Sentro De Grabidad (SRSDG) Peddler of NPA’s North Central Mindanao Regional Committee (NCMRC).
The 10ID commander, Brig. General Allan D. Hambala, reiterates his plea for the remaining members of the CTG, notably in Bukidnon province, to surrender.
“The 10ID conducts military operations through the legitimate use of force against the CTG, ensuring the safety and well-being of the people. Nevertheless, the 10ID remains open to accepting Communist NPA Terrorists willing to lay down their arms and reintegrate into the folds of the law,” Hambala said. (melbmadera)
