Six Abu Sayyaf militants killed in two clashes

[Inquirer] Six Abu Sayyaf militants were killed during continuing military operations in Basilan and Sulu on Friday morning, the Philippine military reported. Military spokesman Filemon Tan Jr. said two of those killed were identified as Abu Sayyaf sub-leaders.

The Basilan clash took place in Tipo-tipo town, and two rebels under Radzmil Jannatul, alias Khubayb, and Guro Arah, were killed. Nine soldiers were wounded.

About three hours after that clash, Tan said troops also encountered a group under Abu Sayyaf leader Alden Bagadi in Indanan, Sulu. Four Abu Sayyaf gunmen were killed in the battle while two soldiers were wounded.

Tan said, "Close air support was provided to the engaged troops. Military troops further recovered the remains of the enemy’s casualties."
