August 14<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Karenni State and Pekhon, indiscriminate airstrikes and artillery shelling by the terrorist military during July killed 21 civilians<\/strong> and injured 43 others<\/strong>, according to the Karenni Civil Society Network (KCSN).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The KCSN, which issues monthly reports, released its latest update today, August 14, detailing the junta\u2019s violations. The statement said that during July, the military\u2019s attacks killed civilians in Pekhon, Loikaw, Demoso, and Hpasawng Townships<\/strong>, and that one person was also arrested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reported property damage included 4 buildings<\/strong> destroyed in Loikaw, 7<\/strong> in Demoso, 24<\/strong> in Pekhon, and 14<\/strong> in Hpasawng.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The KCSN noted that these casualties occurred after the junta recaptured Mobye<\/strong> on July 1 and subsequently escalated air and artillery attacks. The group assessed that the junta aims to seize control of transportation routes in northern Karenni and to disrupt revolutionary forces by carrying out airstrikes on Hpasawng and Mawchi mines<\/strong>, which provide support to the resistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udea9\ud83d\udea9 2. Ta\u2019ang Civil Society Groups Accuse China of Enabling Junta\u2019s War Crimes Through Arms Support<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

August 14<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ta\u2019ang civil society organizations have accused the Chinese government of aiding the terrorist junta in committing war crimes by supplying it with weapons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a joint statement on August 13, the organizations condemned the daily, deliberate aerial bombardments by the junta on populated areas and directly linked them to ongoing war crimes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The signatories included the Ta\u2019ang Students and Youth Union (TSYU)<\/strong>, Ta\u2019ang Legal Aid Foundation (TLAF)<\/strong>, Ta\u2019ang Women\u2019s Organization (TWO)<\/strong>, Ta\u2019ang Education Institute (TEI)<\/strong>, Ta\u2019ang Health Organization (THO)<\/strong>, and Ta\u2019ang Environmental Watch Group (TEWG)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They stated that under the pretext of reclaiming townships under the control of the Ta\u2019ang National Liberation Army (PSLF\/TNLA)<\/strong> and holding elections, the junta has been carrying out intentional and targeted airstrikes<\/strong> daily on towns and villages with dense civilian populations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Between June and August 13\u2014a period of just over two months\u201456 civilians<\/strong>, including 13 children<\/strong>, were killed, and 136 civilians<\/strong>, including 8 children<\/strong>, were injured in Momeik, Kutkai, Hsipaw, Monglon, Mongngawt, Kyaukme, and Nawnghkio Townships<\/strong>, all under PSLF\/TNLA control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The attacks also destroyed 218 civilian homes<\/strong>, 8 schools<\/strong>, 8 religious buildings<\/strong>, 3 hospitals<\/strong>, 3 hotels<\/strong>, and 23 other structures<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The statement further alleged that China, in cooperation with the terrorist junta, is exerting political and military pressure to return TNLA-controlled areas. This includes cutting off consumer goods and food supplies, blocking essential medicines, restricting border trade, and severing communications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moreover, they accused China of providing the junta with modern weapons and technology, thereby empowering it to commit war crimes and crimes against humanity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
