Heavy fighting continues in Kachin State\u2019s Bhamo, where junta forces from Strategic Command Unit 21 (SAC-21) and Light Infantry Battalion 47 (LIB-47) remain under assault, with reports emerging that over 100 military family members from SAC-21 have surrendered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The clashes reportedly reignited on April 25 when joint forces including the Kachin Independence Army (KIA) resumed their offensive.

Fighting is described as intense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kachin News Group reported that the joint KIA-led forces are now conducting an offensive aimed at fully capturing SAC-21. Battles are said to have reached as far as the central command post of the battalion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, the junta has been fiercely defending Bhamo using aerial bombardment, drones, and heavy artillery in an attempt to prevent the loss of the town.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although unverified, reports surfaced on April 29 claiming that more than 100 family members from SAC-21 had surrendered to the KIA and its allied forces. Independent confirmation of this surrender has not yet been established.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The campaign to seize Bhamo began in late December 2024. During the earthquake emergency from April 2 to 22, the KIA coalition forces temporarily paused their offensive, but fighting has now resumed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
