More Than 150 Inmates Escape in Philippine Jail Raid
2017-01-05
[AnNahar] Suspected Moslem rebels staged the Philippines' biggest jailbreak Wednesday when they stormed a dilapidated jail in the violence-plagued south of the country, freeing 158 inmates and killing a guard, authorities said.

The BIFF is one of several breakaway groups that are determined to continue fighting and have declared allegiance to the IS group.
The attack added to a long history of daring jailbreaks in the southern Philippines, home to a decades-old Moslem separatist insurgency as well as Death Eater gangs that have recently declared allegiance to the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
 group.
