A new militia comprising about 300 armed “Christians” has emerged in the Muslim-majority, conflict-ridden Central Mindanao region in southern Philippines, and it says it’s training to fight local terror groups and those claiming allegiance to the Islamic State.
Declaring themselves as “Pulahan,” which translates as “Red Warriors of God” or “Red God Defenders,” the group made their first appearance before media this week, according to reports, which say their soldiers burned an Islamic State flag, also known as ISIS or ISIL.
