2. Write your answers for  source #2 of the triangulation here.


a. Source #2 (Where did you get your source?)
- (CORTEZ, 2022)

b. The detailed story/information written by the source.

- Chad Booc and Gelejurain Ngujo II, two volunteer teachers for Lumad
schools, were among the five "rebels" massacred in an encounter in
Barangay Andap, New Bataan, Davao de Oro. In a "wave of armed
encounters" among both government security forces and the New
People's Army, there were two killings, according to a statement issued
by the 10th Infantry Division on Friday, February 25. The Save Our
Schools (SOS) Network refutes the military's allegations that the two
were rebels killed in combat. According to locals in Barangay Andap, no
conflicts seen between the military and the NPA occurred on that same
day. Marco Valbuena, a Communist Party of the Philippines official,
likewise refutes the military statements. He stated that NPA troops
verified that no armed skirmishes occurred in the vicinity. He also
ordered an in-depth investigation into the deaths of the Booc, Ngujo, and
the three people he referred to as activists. SOS also chastised the 1001st
Infantry Brigade for "parading" the carcasses and taking pictures as
"badges of honor," calling it "disrespect and non-adherence to the
CARHRIL (Comprehensive Agreement on the Respect of Human Rights
and International Humanitarian Law)." Over the years, Chad has received
several violent threats from government forces for simply speaking out
against the widespread militarization of Lumad ancestral lands and the
shutdown of their schools. According to the organization, "Chad is being
pursued in the Lumad areas where he and Jurain teach to use his
democratic rights and fight for Lumad rights. The sort of anarchy and
totalitarianism that the Duterte regime chooses to leave as its legacy."
