\ud83d\udea9\ud83d\udea9 1. Four Civilians Killed in Taungtha Township Due to Indiscriminate Shelling by the Military Junta<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

July 2<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Public Administration Team of Taungtha Township, four civilians were killed<\/strong> as a result of indiscriminate shelling by the junta troops currently conducting military operations along the border area between Myingyan and Taungtha townships<\/strong> in Mandalay Region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A junta column of around 150 troops<\/strong>, which had set fire to civilian homes in villages along the Myingyan-Taungtha border, was attacked by revolutionary resistance forces, reportedly resulting in casualties on the junta\u2019s side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This military column departed from Ngathayauk village tract in Myingyan Township on June 26<\/strong>, targeting civilian homes in Kamma, Zaymagyi, Sintharmwe, Tawphyar, and Thanatpin villages<\/strong>, burning them down before proceeding to villages in the western part of Taungtha Township<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Due to attacks by revolutionary forces, the column was forced to change direction. To reinforce the column, additional junta troops and Pyusawhti militia from Myinchan<\/strong> fired heavy artillery from Htanpinkant Village<\/strong> in Taungtha Township. The shells landed on Theekone Village<\/strong>, hitting civilian homes and killing two men and two women<\/strong>, while two others were injured<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The junta column continued advancing along the Myingyan\u2013Taungtha border and reached Kinzalote Village<\/strong>, where revolutionary groups launched a counteroffensive on June 27<\/strong>, splitting into three units and using heavy and light weapons, including drones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In response, the junta deployed two MI-35 helicopters<\/strong> for air support. In retaliation, the retreating junta troops burned down three civilian homes in Kinzalote Village<\/strong> and eventually withdrew to Ngathayauk Police Station in the early morning of June 28<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This joint resistance operation was carried out by Taungtha Township People\u2019s Defense Team<\/strong>, together with Battalion 801 of Naypyidaw<\/strong>, the Meiktila Revolutionary Force<\/strong>, DSNDA People\u2019s Defense Force<\/strong>, and Battalion 3 of Myinchan District<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udea9\ud83d\udea9 2. Junta Destroys Paukkaung\u2013Oattwin Road Connecting Pyay and Taungoo Districts<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

July 2<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The military junta has deliberately destroyed the Paukkaung\u2013Oattwin road<\/strong>, which connects Pyay District and Taungoo District<\/strong>, in Bago Region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Pyay Underground News PUGN<\/em>, the destruction took place on June 30 and July 1<\/strong>, when the junta forces cut off and dismantled the road\u2014part of the main transportation route in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This act is believed to be part of the junta\u2019s broader strategy to suppress and isolate local populations<\/strong> in Pyay District, where residents have increasingly resisted its authority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The junta’s military forces continue to commit atrocities in the region, including burning civilian homes, arresting and torturing civilians, and extrajudicial killings<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Kanbalu Township Activist Network (Kanbalu District)<\/strong>, junta troops and Pyusawhti militias from Thankone<\/strong> in Kanbalu Township abducted civilians<\/strong> from Oatpho and Khawthanti villages<\/strong> and forcibly took them into Thankone Village.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At around 7:45 AM on July 2<\/strong>, junta forces and Pyusawhti members swept into the two villages, seizing residents by force and taking them away to Thankone<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the past three consecutive days, junta forces and Pyusawhti groups\u2014numbering nearly 100 personnel<\/strong>\u2014have carried out operations across Kanbalu Township, burning down villages and killing civilians<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Due to these attacks, an estimated 8,000 civilians<\/strong> from Seikphyo, Kyaungkone<\/strong>, and nearby villages have fled their homes in search of safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The artillery attack took place on June 29<\/strong>, targeting Myauk Khin Yan Pyu village, and was carried out as a retaliatory operation<\/strong> in response to the burning and killing of two resistance fighters<\/strong> by junta forces and their affiliates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ah Nyar Heroes stated that this operation was part of their ongoing resistance campaign and emphasized that they are now resuming quiet and careful strategic movements<\/strong>. They also called on the public to remain strong<\/strong> and expressed gratitude to supporters and contributors<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thick smoke was seen billowing from the village, indicating a large-scale fire caused by junta soldiers. The attack occurred while the residents had already fled and the village was deserted<\/strong>, local reports confirmed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Previously, on April 30<\/strong>, junta forces also burned down the eastern part of Zayatmyoung village. This time, they reportedly destroyed the remaining civilian houses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Minhla Thadin information group<\/strong> stated that the second wave of destruction follows the deaths of several junta officers, including a deputy battalion commander, in recent clashes<\/strong>. In response, the military is carrying out a brutal \u201carea clearance\u201d campaign<\/strong>, systematically torching villages across the township.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
