| 2015-01-28 | |
| [AnNahar] Two people were killed in a kaboom in the Southern Philippines on Tuesday, the military said, the latest in a series of violent incidents in the strife-torn region in barely a week. Two men riding a cycle of violence, and believed to be carrying the bomb, were killed when it went kaboom!in Pikit on the island of Mindanao, according to Joan Petinglay, regional military spokeswoman. "Initial reports were that the two persons were carrying the bomb," she told AFP, adding that the government was investigating the men's identities and possible motive.
The kaboom came after a boom-mobile killed two people and maimed 50 others on Friday in the southern port city of Zamboanga, and a bloody clash with gunnies on Sunday left 44 coppers dead in Mamasapano town, only about 22 kilometers from Pikit. | |
