Manila, Nov 4 (TIWN) Two Filipino soldiers were killed and four others wounded in a clash with New People's Army (NPA) rebels in the Negros Occidental province, the military said on Thursday.
The military said the fighting, which broke out around 3:40 p.m. local time on Wednesday in a town in Negros Occidental province, lasted about one hour. The army sent troops to the area after villagers complained about the rebels' presence, the military added. No casualties were reported on the side of the rebels, but the military claimed troops saw the rebels dragged at least four comrades as they fled away.
