Philippine troops clash with communist militants
2013-05-04
Philippine troops clashed Friday with communist terrorists militants in Zamboanga del Norte's Leon Postigo town.

Army officials said the battle erupted in a village in the hinterland where soldiers tracked down the New People's Army terrorists militants following a tip from residents about the presence of gunmen. The fighting lasted more than thirty minutes.

It was not immediately known if there were terrorist rebel casualties.

Lt. Col. Leonel Nicolas said, "The terrorists rebels were camping in the forested area and believed to have come fresh from extortion activities in the nearby communities of Leon Postigo."

Nicolas said they also recovered a shutter gun handgun, three sacks of provisions believed taken from locals and five bags containing personal belongings, subversive documents, medical equipment and ammunition left behind by the terrorists militants.
