\ud83d\udea9\ud83d\udea9 1. Military Bombs Monastery Shelter for IDPs in Banmaw<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Banmaw Town, the military junta bombed Taung Lay Lone Monastery located in Nyaung Pin Ward, which was being used as a shelter for internally displaced persons (IDPs), resulting in casualties, according to local sources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On May 8, the junta carried out airstrikes using jet fighters targeting both the Kanna Yate Sa Monastery on Kanna Road and the Taung Lay Lone Monastery in Nyaung Pin Ward, where IDPs had sought refuge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bombing of the Kanna Yate Sa Monastery reportedly killed approximately 15 displaced civilians and injured more than 30 others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, over 380 remaining IDPs were successfully evacuated by local resistance forces, as reported by the Bamaw Scout Team, which monitors and shares updates from the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Taung Lay Lone Monastery, the extent of casualties among displaced people remains unconfirmed at the time of reporting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to reports, while members of the Kachin People’s Defense Force (KPDF) and allied resistance units were in the process of evacuating IDPs from the Taung Lay Lone Monastery, junta aircraft dropped bombs weighing approximately 1,200 pounds into the monastery compound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A video clip showing the junta\u2019s bombing of the IDP shelter at Taung Lay Lone Monastery has been circulating on donation and resistance networks. The one-and-a-half-minute video shows hundreds of displaced persons preparing for relocation by KPDF troops when the airstrike occurred.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Resistance forces led by the Kachin Independence Army (KIA) have been engaged in a campaign to seize control of Banmaw Town for over five months. During this period, extensive aerial bombardments and heavy artillery shelling by the junta have destroyed a significant number of civilian homes, according to reports from the ground.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udea9\ud83d\udea9 2. Guerrilla Group Attacks Junta Battalion Gate in Hlaingtharya Township<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Yangon Region\u2019s Hlaingtharya Township, guerrilla forces attacked the gate security post of the junta-affiliated Infantry Battalion 211 using hand grenades, according to the Yangon Army (YA) resistance group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The attack occurred around 6:30 PM on May 10, targeting the gate of the 211th Light Infantry Battalion. Yangon Army stated that casualties on the junta side are possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The group reported that the grenade thrown by the resistance fighters exploded inside the gate security post, which led to the claimed damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yangon Army also noted that on May 3, in collaboration with the western district cell of Pa Ka Pha (People\u2019s Defense Forces under the NUG), they carried out a high-impact remote mine attack on the Taikkyi Police Station.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yangon Army further stated their commitment to continue military operations until the terrorist military dictatorship is dismantled, and urged the public to remain informed and supportive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

========================<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udea9\ud83d\udea9 3. Landmine Attack on Junta Troops Harassing Civilians Near Myingyan\u2019s Car Yard<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Myingyan Township, Mandalay Region, the Myingyan Black Tiger (MBT) resistance force launched a landmine attack on a junta troop unit that was oppressing and interrogating civilians near the northern area of the local car yard, the group reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The attack occurred around 10:45 AM on May 10. One junta soldier was reportedly seriously injured and is currently receiving treatment at Myingyan General Hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As this is preliminary information, the extent of junta casualties is still under investigation, the group noted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MBT also stated that while they had initially planned three simultaneous missions in Myingyan Town, two had to be aborted. This decision was made because some local civilians were seen engaging in prolonged conversations with junta troops, raising security concerns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The group earnestly requested the public not to engage in extended close interactions or conversations with junta forces in order to avoid compromising future resistance missions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udea9\ud83d\udea9 4. Military Junta\u2019s Aerial Bombing on Mindat City Destroys Approximately 15 Houses<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The military junta has once again launched an aerial attack on Mindat City<\/strong> in Chin State, damaging a total of approximately 15 buildings<\/strong>, including both government offices<\/strong> and privately owned homes<\/strong>, according to a statement issued by the Mindat Township People\u2019s Administration Body<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The airstrike occurred around 10:30 p.m. on May 9<\/strong>, and was carried out in two rounds<\/strong>. While there were only a few reported injuries, significant destruction was inflicted upon public infrastructure and civilian homes, according to the local administrative body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just two days earlier, on May 7<\/strong>, the junta had also conducted two aerial bombardments<\/strong> targeting Mindat, damaging government buildings<\/strong> and staff housing units<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Due to this recent wave of intensified and frequent airstrikes by the junta on Mindat, local revolutionary groups<\/strong> have urged civilians in the area to stay alert and listen for air raid warnings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mindat City has been under the control of the Chin Brotherhood Alliance<\/strong>, including the CDF\u2013Mindat<\/strong>, since December 21, 2024<\/strong>, when revolutionary forces successfully captured the city from the military junta. Since then, administrative duties have been carried out by the Mindat Township People\u2019s Administration Body<\/strong>, but the junta has continued to conduct aerial assaults<\/strong> in an apparent effort to destabilize or reclaim the territory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

========================<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udea9\ud83d\udea9 5. At Least Nine Civilians Killed in Airstrike on Ywar Taw Kone Village, Wetlet Township<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

At least nine civilians<\/strong> were killed when the military junta\u2019s air force<\/strong> bombed Ywar Taw Kone Village<\/strong> in Wetlet Township<\/strong>, Sagaing Region<\/strong>, without any ongoing ground battle in the area, according to local sources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The air raid was carried out by a fighter jet from the junta\u2019s Meiktila Air Base<\/strong>, which dropped bombs twice<\/strong> on Ywar Taw Kone around 4:30 p.m. on May 10<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among the dead were two female schoolteachers<\/strong>, and several others were severely injured<\/strong>, while eight houses were destroyed by fire<\/strong>, local sources reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Furthermore, at around 7:30 a.m. on May 11<\/strong>, a fighter jet<\/strong> originating from Tada-U Air Base<\/strong> launched two more airstrikes<\/strong>, this time targeting the Shwe Pan Kone Basic Education School<\/strong> in Wetlet Township<\/strong>, according to reports from local informants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, the Wetlet Information Network<\/strong> stated that the same fighter jet<\/strong> from Tada-U<\/strong> carried out two other aerial attacks<\/strong> earlier this morning \u2014 one in an area of Singu Township<\/strong> and another in the eastern part of Madaya Township<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
