ANGELES CITY, Philippines – At least seven suspected members of the New People’s Army were killed in an encounter with government troops in Barangay Malbang, Pantabangan, Nueva Ecija on Wednesday, June 26. Masangkay said the 84th Infantry Battalion of the 7ID encountered around 20 NPA members so it’s possible there were more rebels killed. However, the total number of deaths as well as their identities are still being verified.“Sa ngayon, sa progress report meron pa pero wala pa sa akin yung actual na report. According to our ground troops, pero meron pa raw. Kanina lang, this morning,”

The operating troops recovered three M-14 rifles, six M-16 rifles, one M-16 with M-203 attached rifle, and one low-powered firearm, as well as “subversive” documents and personal belongings, from the encounter site.
