ZAMBOANGA, Philippines: One of the Jemaah Islamiyah (JI) members linked to the deadly Bali bombing in 2002 is believed to have been killed in an air strike on al-Qaeda-linked groups in the southern Philippines, a military official said on Saturday. The JI member, Dulmatin and another Indonesian, Mohammad Ali Abdul Rahiman, also known as Mauyha, were among those killed when aircraft targeted a meeting in the southern island of Mindanao on Thursday, said Colonel Gerry Jalandoni. Jalandoni, who commands forces in the area, said intelligence operatives reported that two of three Indonesian JI members who were in the area of the airstrike were killed. He said the military had found only seven ripped-up bodies in the marsh so far. The military attacked after receiving information that the three JI members were meeting with leaders of the Abu Sayyaf Muslim kidnap group and with renegade members of the Muslim separatist Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF).
