Five Abus, one soldier killed in Sulu clashes
[PhilStar] Five Abu Sayyaf bandits and a Philippine soldier were killed in two separate encounters in Sulu on Thursday.

Military spokesman Gerry Besana said four followers of Abu Sayyaf sub-leader Almujer Yaddah were killed and four other rebels injured in the clash with soldiers at the boundary of Barangays Tanum and Liang in Patikul town. Joint Task Force Sulu commander Divino Rey Pabayo said, "We lost one soldier... Two others who were wounded were evacuated to the Camp Teodulfo Station Hospital based in Jolo."

Another clash, in which another rebel was killed, occurred between troops and the group of Almadjan Sahidjuan, alias Apoh Mike, in Barangay Tabu-Bato, Maimbung.

The military has intensified its operations against the Abu Sayyaf after six kidnap victims rescued by the military on Tuesday revealed that they were with two other hostages when they were held captive in Sulu for 20 days. The rescued victims said they were with Jelster Ed Tiu Quimbo, the son of Labason town Mayor Eddie Quimbo, who was kidnapped in March last year, and coconut farmer Jose Duterte, who was seized along with his wife Jessica in Siocon, Zamboanga del Norte last year.
