Two trooops of 91st IB were killed in a sniping operation by the New People’s Army (NPA)-Aurora on June 3, around 9 am in the Diamuloc river in Barangay Punglo, Maria Aurora, Aurora. With prompt report from the masses of the military combat operation, Red fighters immediately positioned themselves and hit the operating troops.

According to the NPA unit, “the masses are also the key for comrades to study the terrain and the possible route of operation. This is proof of the unconditional love and support of the masses for their people’s army.”

After their losses, the military indiscriminately fired their weapons and bombed the area.
