Maguindanao Massacre Part 3

A military encounter between the Special Action Force (SAF) of the Philippine National Police (PNP) and the Bangsamoro Islamic Freedom Fighters (BIFF) and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) occurred on January 25, 2015 at Tukanalipao,Mamasapano, Maguindanao. Originally a mission to serve arrest warrants for high-ranking terrorists, it led to the deaths of 44 members of SAF, 16 from MILF and BIFF, and a suspected death to Zulkifli Abdhir, one of the terrorists.

The mission was called "Oplan Wolverine" by the PNP-SAF.[6]

The incident caused the Philippine Senate to halt the passage of the Bangsamoro Basic Law, effectively endangering the peace process between the two sides.
