Myanmar Military News Updates \u2013 Oct 26, 2025 Morning<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udea9\ud83d\udea9 1. MDSI Reports that Coordinated Attacks on Military-Owned Defense Factories (KaPaSa 5, 6, 9, 14, 16) by AA and Allied Forces Could Significantly Undermine Junta\u2019s Military Capabilities<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Myanmar Defence and Security Institute (MDSI), if the Arakan Army (AA) and allied resistance forces successfully carry out systematic attacks on the junta\u2019s key defense production facilities \u2014 KaPaSa factories (5, 6, 9, 14, and 16) \u2014 the military council\u2019s operational capacity could be severely weakened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These KaPaSa factories are described as vital arteries in the junta\u2019s weapons production and logistical support network. Damage to any of these sites could cause a critical collapse in the junta\u2019s nationwide combat capabilities, MDSI noted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

KaPaSa (6)<\/strong> factory, located near Nyaung Chay Htauk Village, U Shit Pin Town, in Pantan Township, Bago Region, close to the Rakhine border, is a major plant responsible for producing iron and metal components essential for weapons manufacturing. MDSI stated that if AA and allied forces manage to disrupt this facility, the junta\u2019s weapons production could be crippled, leading to a noticeable reduction in its combat strength.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

KaPaSa (5)<\/strong> and KaPaSa (16)<\/strong> factories primarily manufacture ammunition for artillery shells and bombs. KaPaSa (5) is located near the intersection of Pathien-Monywa Road and Kamma Road in Pantan Township, while KaPaSa (16) is situated in Ma Thone Village, along the Rakhine frontier. If these factories are successfully targeted by AA offensives, ammunition production would be halted, creating severe shortages in the junta\u2019s artillery and bomb supplies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

KaPaSa (9)<\/strong>, located in Kyauk Phu Village, is a main facility producing small arms ammunition for infantry use. The plant is reportedly situated only about 10 miles from an active AA combat zone. Destruction of this site would disrupt the junta\u2019s small arms supply chain, leading to a significant loss of ground combat capability nationwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

KaPaSa (14)<\/strong> factory, located near Nat Yay Kan strategic base along the An\u2013Padan road at the Magway border, produces small arms components and PCB circuit boards for aerial bombs. MDSI highlighted that if AA attacks were to damage this factory, the junta\u2019s capacity to produce aerial bombs would be reduced, significantly impairing its airstrike capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As of October 14<\/strong>, AA offensives had advanced to the Pan Kan Kwe Village and reached the vicinity of the Nat Yay Kan strategic base, positioning them close enough to pose a direct threat to these KaPaSa facilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to military sources, a Kachin Independence Army (KIA) soldier from Brigade 11<\/strong> successfully shot down and destroyed a junta reconnaissance drone using only a small firearm while it was flying over the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The incident occurred on October 24<\/strong> in the Man Win Gyi region<\/strong> of Mansi Township<\/strong>, Kachin State. Reports from 7 Stars News<\/strong> indicate that a KIA sergeant led the operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was further reported that the reconnaissance drone \u2014 used by the junta for surveillance purposes \u2014 was downed solely with small arms fire (a rifle).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udea9\ud83d\udea9 3. Federal Dhuwun Kyarr Force Arrests Pyu Saw Htee Leader Responsible for Rape and Civilian Killings in Launglon Township<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

October 25<\/strong>
Radio NUG<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to reports from the Federal Dhuwun Kyarr Force<\/strong>, its troops captured U Soe Than<\/strong>, a Pyu Saw Htee militia leader responsible for multiple cases of rape and the unlawful arrest and killing of civilians in Launglon Township<\/strong>, Tanintharyi Region<\/strong>, on October 21<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

U Soe Than, the Pyu Saw Htee leader based in Kyauk Ni Maw Village<\/strong>, was apprehended around 11:00 a.m.<\/strong> while having lunch at his home. The arrest operation took place under highly risky conditions, as Kyauk Ni Maw Village is located near a junta military gate checkpoint. Local sources indicated that this is the first time such a high-level arrest was successfully executed in this area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since the military coup, U Soe Than has been actively involved in junta operations to secure control over land and waterways in Launglon Township. He is known to have committed numerous atrocities, including torching civilian homes in Kyauk Ni Maw<\/strong> and neighboring villages, arbitrarily arresting and executing innocent civilians, committing rape against local women, engaging in armed robbery, and extorting money from local fishermen under threat of violence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He is currently being held for interrogation concerning his crimes, and further legal action will be taken to ensure he faces appropriate punishment, according to the Federal Dhuwun Kyarr Force<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Radio NUG<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to local reports, on the morning of October 25 at around 10:30 a.m.<\/strong>, a junta gyrocopter<\/strong> dropped two bombs<\/strong> on a school located in Nyaung Pin Thar Village<\/strong>, western Shwebo Township<\/strong>, Sagaing Region. The explosions destroyed two classroom buildings<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One bomb struck the area in front of the two-storey school building and another exploded in the school playground. Fortunately, no casualties<\/strong> were reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, on the night of October 24<\/strong>, the military council carried out airborne bomb attacks<\/strong> on villages along the border between Myinmu Township<\/strong> and Pakokku Township<\/strong> using three paramotors<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The attacks killed two civilians<\/strong> \u2014 one man and one woman \u2014 and injured two other women<\/strong>, both of whom reportedly suffered serious wounds<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to bombings, junta troops aboard the paramotors also fired machine guns<\/strong> at the villages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since October 22<\/strong>, a junta column departing from Pakokku<\/strong> has been conducting offensives in villages along the Myinmu\u2013Pakokku border area. As of now, the column has set up camp at Nyaung Jit Pin Village<\/strong> in Waso Village Tract<\/strong>, according to reports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Karen National Union (KNU)<\/strong> Central Information Department, the terrorist junta<\/strong>, which is staging sham elections within KNU-controlled Kaw Thoo Lei territory<\/strong> in an attempt to gain international legitimacy, fired two 81-mm heavy artillery shells<\/strong> at a civilian village without any active combat<\/strong> on October 22, 2025, at 10:10 a.m.<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The shells were fired by troops from Military Commission (Kha Ma Ya-598)<\/strong>, stationed at Zarap Gyi<\/strong>, into an area where civilians live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the shells exploded near Win Kan Village<\/strong>, in Win Kan Village Tract<\/strong>, Kyaikhto Township<\/strong>, injuring Daw Met Kyi (age 62)<\/strong>, a local resident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Separately, on September 23, 2025<\/strong>, in Ma Zaw Village<\/strong>, Ma Zaw Village Tract<\/strong>, Lemular Township<\/strong>, Myeik-Tavoy District<\/strong>, the junta\u2019s Battalion 556<\/strong>, based in Zawel<\/strong>, fired heavy artillery into the village. The attack injured two civilians, including a child<\/strong>, and destroyed one civilian home<\/strong>, according to KNU reports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
