New People's Army

The New People's Army (NPA) is an armed group in the Philippines involved in an ongoing conflict with the government, often engaging in clashes with military forces and declaring periodic ceasefires. Recent encounters and operations highlight the continued tension between the NPA and government agencies, with both sides accusing each other of violating ceasefire terms and inciting violence. The NPA's strength has declined significantly over the years, but it remains active in several regions, particularly in rural and remote areas.
