The Battle of Mendiola (1/30/70) was a sudden outburst of violence on the 30th of January, 1970. Starting with an incident involving a rock and a lamp, Student Activists put Malacañang under siege until the PSG started firing live ammunition.
The song 'Awit ng Mendiola' (which, understandably is often mistaken to be about the Mendiola Massacre on 1/22/87) is about this standoff.
