The rebels burned a backhoe, a grader and a road roller truck in Sitio Datal Bub in Barangay Daan Suyan, Capt. Alberto Caber, chief of the public information office of the military’s Easter Mindanao Command, said.

“The construction equipment are being used in the road construction as part of the developmental projects of the local government of Malapatan,” Caber said.
