ZAMBOANGA CITY Government troops overran a camp of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) after a fierce gunbattle with 200 separatist rebels in Sirawai, Zamboanga del Norte last Thursday, the military said.
The MILF camp is located in the mountainous Sipakit complex, which the Moro National Liberation Front used to occupy before it forged the 1996 peace pact, according to Lt. Gen. Roy Kyamko, chief of the Armed Forces Southern Command.
Soldiers found at the camp, some 150 kilometers north of this city, the remains of two rebels buried in shallow graves. Roel Pareño
