2nd NPA cadaver found days after clash in Davao de Oro

A second cadaver believed to be an NPA fighter was found in Davao de Oro's Pantukan town two days after a clash with government troops.

The first firefight killed Benjamin Olvis, an NPA medic who died from wounds sustained during the encounter and tried to escape.

Local residents reported that several NPAs were terrorizing communities, prompting authorities' intervention.

Lt. Col. Sonny Gonzales emphasized community cooperation in combating insurgency under President Duterte's 'whole-of-nation' approach.
