Washington, DC – The International Peoples’ Tribunal on Crimes Against the Filipino People (IPT) opened here July 16. 250 legal experts, witnesses of human rights violations, and social activists from the U.S., the Philippines and elsewhere came together. The mood in the hall was defiant, yet somber, as one after another survivor appeared before jurors to present the murders and torture committed against loved ones.
On Dec. 5 the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) said all revolutionary forces will be mobilizing all possible resources to secure the people and carry out all necessary operations in the face of the upcoming super typhoon Ruby (international name Hagupit).
