Note: The people’s war report is a monthly update on the situation of the anti-imperialist guerrillas of the New People’s Army, who are currently waging an armed struggle in the islands of the Philippines. These revolutionaries have made strides in empowering the working class and peasants in the country. Their enemy is the Armed Forces of the Philippines, an American and British-backed fascistic army which protects destructive mining operations and defends Yank, Brit, EU, and Chinese imperialism. These updates serve only as reports on some armed actions, and, as in any war, cannot reflect wholesale every event in the Philippine national democratic revolution.
