DAVAO CITY: The military yesterday said it had discovered a huge cache of improvised bombs believed to be from a regional factory of the leftist New People’s Army (NPA) in the southern Philippines.
Some 163 pieces of landmines were recovered in one of the biggest seizure by government troops on Wednesday at Kauswagan village, Loreto, a town of Agusan del Sur, said Captain Alberto Caber, spokesperson for the military’s Eastern Mindanao Command.
“Bombs have enough power that can kill or maim thousands and destroy a city when detonated at the same time,” Caber said.
