U.S. Withdraws From Philippines


MANILA, Philippines; The U.S.  government has withdrawn officials and
contractors from the southern Mindanao region of the Philippines and
advised American citizens not to travel there because of increasing
terrorist threats."Kidnappings of foreigners, bombings, and other
violent incidents call for Americans to exercise great caution
throughout the Philippines.  Moreover, as a result of the September 11
terrorist attacks in the United States, U.S.  citizens and interests may
be at increased risk of terrorist actions from extremist groups," a
State Department travel advisory said Friday.It cited the kidnapping of
three Americans and 17 Filipinos from an upscale resort on May 27 by the
Muslim extremist Abu Sayyaf group and another incident in which a group
of American Navy personnel and their guides were fired upon by communist
rebels on Mount Pinatubo.  No one was injured in the shooting.The Abu
Sayyaf say they have killed Guillermo Sobero of Corona, Calif.,!

one of the Americans abducted at the Dos Palmas resort in Palawan
province.  The group is still holding U.S.  missionaries Martin and
Gracia Burnham of Wichita, Kan.On Friday, soldiers recovered remains
believed to be of Sobero on Basilan island.The travel advisory said Abu
Sayyaf guerrillas have broadened their area of operations and are able
to travel long distances from the southern Philippines, opening other
areas in the country to attack.The Abu Sayyaf reportedly has links with
Osama bin Laden, alleged mastermind of the terrorist attacks on the
World Trade Center and the Pentagon.  The group claims it is fighting
for an independent Islamic state in the southern Philippines, but the
government regards it as a bandit group.
