Caption: Armed Christian group Reformed Ilaga Movement activists raise their weapons as they assemble in a remote village in North Cotabato, southern Philippines on August 27, 2008. A Philippine Christian vigilante group warned that it will start executing 10 Muslim rebels for every civilian killed, as violence in the south of the country intensifies. The Reform Ilaga Movement, dormant for decades after gaining prominence in the 1970s during the early stages of the rebellion, have again been in the spotlight in the face of a new campaign by Muslim rebels.

The fighting forced 160,000 people to flee their homes in several towns of North Cotabato province in southern Philippines until government forces expelled Muslim insurgents who had occupied several villages. Fighting broke out soon after the Supreme Court suspended plans for the establishment of an extended Muslim homeland in southern Philippines.
