| Ten rebels killed by own landmine |
| 2004-05-01 |
| TEN communist rebels were killed and six were wounded when a landmine they were planting exploded in the southern Philippines, a military spokesman said today. The 16 guerrillas of the communist New People’s Army (NPA) were planting the landmines along a highway in Esperanza town when one of their home-made devices went off, Lieutenant Colonel Renoir Pascua said. The military learned of the incident days later, Pascua said. The NPA is the armed wing of the Communist Party of the Philippines which has been waging a campaign to seize power for more than three decades. It has stepped up its activities in recent months, extorting money from candidates running in the May 10 general elections. |
