Greetings of Peace!
This is in reference to the news article dated March 11, 2019 written by Francisco Tuyay in your prestigious outlet the “Manila Standard.”
It has come to our attention the lead line of the story regarding the ongoing Focused Military Operation in Maguindanao, “Airstrikes vs BIFF rebels mistakenly kill soldier.”
The story has no basis and there is no report with that lead line, even in our statements.
This news will create negative quotations on our effectives in addressing the local terrorist group.
In line with this, may we request to correct and clarify the lead line on the article posted in manilastandard.net and so as to the printed news being released.
Hoping for your understanding and immediate action on this regard.
