Pro-Islamic State Filipino militants carried out more attacks in Maguindanao province in the southern Philippines, injuring two pro-government militia members and a civilian, the military said Friday.
Members of the Bangsamoro Islamic Freedom Fighters (BIFF) carried out the attacks because they oppose a peace process between the government and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF), a former rebel group which controls an autonomous region in the south, according to officials and observers.
“We have three more casualties in attacks by these terrorists,” regional military spokesman Lt. Col. John Paul Baldomar told BenarNews.
He said BIFF militants detonated a homemade bomb on Friday morning along a road near a residential area in Kitango, a village in the town of Datu Saudi Ampatuan. The blast injured a civilian.
