On 26 November 2019, the military carried out airstrikes in Shariff Saydona Mustapha, Maguindanao during a so-called surgical operation meant to take out the group of an influential leader of the Bangsamoro Islamic Freedom Fighters (BIFF). Conflicting reports noted three BIFF fatalities, but these fatalities were also instead said to be from the BIFF-allied Dawlah Islamiyah, who were supposedly hit by artillery fire during military ground operations. The government attack on Dawlah Islamiyah was coded as another event and includes the mentioned three fatalities. Fatalities in this event coded as zero.
