JUSTICE FOR NEGROS 19!
On May 8th, the NTF-ELCAC released a statement in an attempt to obscure the truth of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) crimes on April 19th in Toboso, Negros. The statement aims to dismiss the massacre that happened and frame it as an “armed encounter.” We know the one person was found with gunshot wounds to the back, which directly points at the lies told from the AFP.
PSU SCHRP and PSU Kaibigan condemn the AFP and NTF-ELCAC and their harmful spread of disinformation! Us as youth see real change when we organize ourselves and expose the AFP’s war crimes!
JUSTICE FOR NEGROS 19!
Defend Negros!
