ISABELA CITY, Basilan -- Four persons were killed and several were wounded in an firefight between members of two warring clans in Hadji Mohammad Ajul townahead of Monday's mid-term elections, the military said Sunday.

Brig. Gen. Alvin Luzon, 101st Infantry Brigade commander, said the firefight ensued around 8 am Sunday in the island village of Langil, Hadji Mohammad Ajul.

Luzon said the protagonists are followers of former village chief Almujir Camlian and Mohammad Ajul Mayor Talib Pawaki.

Luzon said they have yet to find out the identities of the fatalities.
