Military violates GRP unilateral ceasefire
The Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) violated the unilateral ceasefire declared by the Arroyo regime from December 16, 2004 to January 4, 2005.
Reports reaching Ang Bayan said that soldiers launched operations on December 16 in Sitio Palompon, Barangay San Isidro, Marihatag, Surigao del Sur. Two Scout Ranger troops were killed in an ensuing clash with the NPA.
That same day, the troops of the Philippine Army�s 23rd, 30th and 58th IB launched offensives in the town of Buenavista, Agusan del Norte.
On the other hand, contrary to AFP claims, all NPA units strictly complied with the ceasefire declared by the CPP Central Committee from December 23, 2004 to January 2, 2005.
