According to Karenni Peopleās Voice, three farmers harvesting rice near Moebye, on the ShanāKarenni border, were arrested and tortured by junta soldiers.
On September 15, junta forces seized the three civilians while they were working in the fields. They were reportedly subjected to brutal torture, including toenails and fingernails pulled out, ears cut, and severe beatings.
On September 20, around 6:00 p.m., two of the farmers managed to escape, but the third remains in junta custody.
The junta regained control of Moebye on July 3, and by July 10 they had also taken control of the PekhonāMoebyeāLoikaw main road. As a result, thousands of acres of farmland nearby were abandoned, and many villagers were forced to flee.
On August 30, junta troops had also shot and killed a civilian traveling by motorcycle on the Nan MekhonāDaw Ngar Khar road in Demoso Township.

In Yone Sii Gyi Village, Myingyan Township, a junta columnācomposed of the Myingyan Peopleās Militia (Lay Lone Ma group) and Mobye Police Battalion (5)āhas been stationed, and since their arrival they have carried out atrocities including looting homes, arson, and sexual violence against women, according to the Taungtha Peopleās Movement Committee.

In addition, along the routes of their movement, they confiscated more than 100 mobile phones from civilians. The stolen cash was reportedly transferred to their families via K-Pay and W-Pay.
Empty bottles of liquor and beer, as well as male condoms, were found discarded along the columnās path. Reports indicate that the troops were using narcotic drugs, which fueled their inhumane acts of sexually assaulting young women.
In Yone Sii Gyi and Than Bi (Yar) villages, they destroyed household property such as solar panels, battery cases, rice containers, plates, and pots, dumping some of the items in the forest.
Before the column was dispatched, it was reported that Sithar Yu Mon had paid them 100,000 kyats each as an incentive.
On September 20, while clearing mines along the Yone Sii GyiāMahlwaing road section, intoxicated junta police mishandled an anti-personnel mine, causing an explosion that killed and injured several of them.
