Philippine Army soldiers seized combat weapons and explosives during an anti-terror operation in Shariff Saydona Mustapha, Maguindanao del Sur.
The operation, conducted by the Army's 6th Infantry Battalion on Sunday, April 27, resulted in the recovery of a sniper rifle, an M1 Garand, a B40 rocket launcher, and five rifle-propelled grenades.
The weapons were abandoned by local terrorists after a brief firefight with patrolling soldiers.
The soldiers were initially dispatched to the area after villagers reported armed men extorting money and rice from farmers.
The terrorists reportedly fled due to running out of ammunition.
