The Philippine military on Monday launched an airstrike at the position of the Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF) in Zamboanga City as the fighting entered its second week.

Two MG520 attack helicopters staged the airstrike shortly after a brief lull midday cutting off the silence of the southern skies, unleashing rockets towards the rebels’ defensive positions, the military said.

There was no immediate confirmation if the rebels were dislodged or casualties were incurred in the air attack.

But the military said what was launched was close air support to complement the ground forces offensive.
