July 4<\/strong>
According to the local news source Minhla Thadin<\/em>, the military junta, fearing potential attacks from resistance forces targeting Minhla town and Light Infantry Battalion (LIB) 1, has destroyed the Myochaung\u2013Sain Kant Lant main road using bulldozers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At around 10:00 AM on July 1<\/strong>, near Thike Myaung Hill<\/strong> along the Myochaung\u2013Sain Kant Lant road located within the western part of Minhla Township, western Bago Region, junta forces reportedly used bulldozers and excavators to dig trenches and demolish the road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was reported that three armored vehicles<\/strong> and approximately 400 junta soldiers<\/strong> arrived in a convoy and proceeded to destroy the road with heavy machinery near Thike Myaung Hill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Local residents said the road was destroyed over a width of roughly 10 feet<\/strong>, severely hindering transportation and movement in the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Myochaung\u2013Sain Kant Lant<\/strong> road is approximately 112 kilometers long<\/strong> and connects Kyauk Tan Khar Township<\/strong> in eastern Bago with the western part of the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On June 9<\/strong>, junta troops had already used bulldozers and dug trenches\u2014also about 10 feet wide<\/strong>\u2014to damage the road near the 2-Mile Gate<\/strong> along the same Myochaung\u2013Sain Kant Lant route, within Kyauk Tan Khar Township, according to Minhla Thadin<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, at approximately 4:00 PM on July 3<\/strong>, junta forces carried out a drone bombing attack<\/strong> on Tharyaw Kon village<\/strong>, located in Htaut Kone village tract<\/strong>, Minhla Township<\/strong>, resulting in three civilian homes being destroyed<\/strong> and three civilians seriously injured<\/strong>, local sources said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since June 19<\/strong>, junta forces have been conducting split military operations<\/strong> in Minhla Township. These attacks have led to the burning of more than 10 villages<\/strong>, with over 200 homes<\/strong> reportedly destroyed by fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udccc\ud83d\udccc 2. Landmine Attack on Junta Troop Movement Near Sin Paung Wae Results in Deaths of 8 Soldiers Including a Military Officer<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

July 4<\/strong>
According to a statement from the People\u2019s Defense Force\u2013Ponnawati (Taung Twin Gyi)<\/strong>, eight junta soldiers<\/strong>, including a military officer, were killed in a landmine ambush on a junta unit en route to rotate guards at a checkpoint along the Koe Pin\u2013Thagara road<\/strong> in Sin Paung Wae Township<\/strong>, Magway Region<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On June 27 at 9:30 AM<\/strong>, junta soldiers traveling from both Thar Si checkpoint<\/strong> and Thapyay San checkpoint<\/strong> were ambushed at two separate locations with landmine attacks<\/strong> near Padetha village<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The operation was reportedly carried out jointly by the People\u2019s Defense Force\u2013Ponnawati (Taung Twin Gyi)<\/strong> and Regiment 5 of Tharyet District<\/strong>, Sin Paung Wae Township.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The attack resulted in eight fatalities<\/strong>, including a captain, and 11 others were severely injured<\/strong>. Resistance sources reported that no PDF fighters were harmed<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because the Koe Pin\u2013Thagara road<\/strong> is part of the main Bago highway route<\/strong>, resistance forces have warned logging and bamboo trucks<\/strong> to avoid the area and have also urged civilians<\/strong> to steer clear of junta checkpoints and locations where junta forces may be stationed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
