Maoist militants attack crop duster in Mindanao
2015-07-06
[Inquirer] Over a dozen Maoist militants stormed an airstrip owned by a multinational banana company and blasted a parked light plane in Compostela Valley province on Saturday.

The heavily-armed New People's Army guerrillas swooped down on the compound of Dole-Stanfilco Philippines in Maragusan at 10:20 p.m. The militants forced their way to the company's hangar, firing at the guardhouse, and planted an improvised explosive device under the plane. The attackers then set off the explosive, damaging the crop duster, before they fled.

#3  Yes, I can think of many uses for a crop duster other than banana farming.

#2  I shoulda included the last sentence:

Police and military officials have blamed extortion as possible motive.
