                    [Summary] => ZAMBOANGA CITY — Government troops found a cache of ammunition and explosives believed to belong to the Abu Sayyaf in a shallow pit in a remote barangay in Basilan.


The soldiers dug up the buried ordnance last Thursday following a tip from residents.

Lt. Gen. Narciso Abaya, Armed Forces Southern Command chief, said the seizure of the ammunition and explosives is a big blow to the Abu Sayyaf.

The cache is believed to be intended for Abu Sayyaf holdouts in Basilan, he added.
