Juan Ponce Enrile, a former administrator during Martial Law, claimed that no massacres occurred during Martial Law that could be comparable to the Mendiola Massacre during Corazon Aquino's presidency. The truth is that were two massacres that occurred during the Martial Law, and both of these events were done against the Muslim communities in Mindanao. The first massacre was the Palimbang or the Malisbong Massacre that happened in a municipality in Sultan Kudarat called Palimbang. The second massacre also took place in Mindanao; it occurred in Bingcul on November 12, 1977.
