\u2e3b<\/li>\n\n\n\n - Two Pyu Saw Htee members killed in Natmauk, underage Pyu member released; eight junta troops killed in attack near Myothit\u2013Natmauk border
m.CDM, April 10, 2026
In Natmauk Township, Magway Region, two Pyu Saw Htee members were ambushed and killed, and during fighting near the Myothit\u2013Natmauk border, eight junta troops, including a captain, were killed, according to a statement by Thayet District Battalion No. 3 (Nga Pyae Ma Guerrilla Force).
On April 7, three Pyu Saw Htee members\u2014said to be followers of Pyu leader Khin Maung Htay from Pitaung Ngote (Pyu) village in Natmauk Township\u2014reportedly came to attend a wedding in Gway Chaung village.
On April 8 at around 1:30 p.m., they were ambushed on their way back from the wedding, and two Pyu Saw Htee members, Aung Htay Lwin and Aye Zaw, were killed.
The two were reportedly involved in forced porter recruitment, extortion, burning civilian homes, and the brutal killing of innocent civilians in the area.
During the incident, a 14-year-old Pyu Saw Htee member, Maung Wai Yan, allegedly tried to counterattack using a hand grenade from his shoulder bag, but revolutionary fighters managed to capture and restrain him in time.
Because he was underage, his life was spared, and he was released after being warned not to cooperate again with junta forces and advised to continue his education properly.
Three mobile phones, one damaged laptop, and one hand grenade were reportedly seized from the three Pyu members.
Similarly, on April 8, a junta military column of around 50 troops conducting patrol operations between Myothit Township and Natmauk Township was also attacked by a revolutionary alliance force.
During the battle, eight junta troops, including a captain with three stars, were reportedly seen dead, and many others were wounded.
The attack was jointly carried out by the Nga Pyae Ma Guerrilla Force and Natmauk Pa Ka Pha. One revolutionary fighter was killed and another suffered non-life-threatening injuries.
Previously, on April 1, another junta column of more than 80 troops coming out of KaPaSa (17) was ambushed between Myothit and Natmauk, and three MA magazine clips and 90 rounds of 5.56 ammunition were seized.

m.CDM, April 10, 2026
A junta convoy traveling from the Northwestern Regional Military Command (Na Ma Kha) toward Division 33 in Sagaing was hit in a landmine attack somewhere along the Monywa\u2013Chaung-U road in Sagaing Region, according to Area71 LPDF Monywa.
At 10:07 a.m. on April 10, the convoy of eight armored vehicles carrying full troop strength was attacked with four mines detonated simultaneously at one point after resistance forces had lain in wait.
As a result of the explosion, the second vehicle in the convoy was hit and temporarily stopped, and resistance forces confirmed that the driver was killed.
Despite multiple junta ambush positions posted along the road, the revolutionary forces reportedly watched for an opening and carried out the attack. After the blast, the troops in the convoy vehicles and those in the ambush positions indiscriminately fired small arms to both sides of the road.
The attack was jointly carried out by Area71 LPDF Monywa, the Monywa Township People\u2019s Defense Mine Unit, and the Taw Kywel Gyi Guerrilla Force, which reportedly withdrew safely without casualties.

m.CDM, April 10
The KNU Central Committee announced on April 10 that, after approving the Kawthoolei Revolutionary Period Charter, it had completed the formation of the Kawthoolei Consultative Council and the Kawthoolei Governing Council.
The announcement said that the two councils were formed during the Kawthoolei Federal Unit Building Discussion Meeting, held from March 31 to April 2.
The draft of the Kawthoolei Revolutionary Period Charter, which had taken more than two years to prepare, was reportedly approved after detailed discussions and negotiations among 58 of the 65 representatives present, including 41 male and 17 female representatives, together with the charter drafting team members.
At the same time as the charter was approved, the Kawthoolei Consultative Council (KCC) and the Kawthoolei Governing Council (KGC) were established in accordance with Chapter 3, Sections 3 and 4 of the charter.
The KNU Central statement said that the charter was formally approved through broad discussion, negotiation, and collective effort, and that the KCC and KGC were formed accordingly.
The KCC will be responsible for guiding the building of the Kawthoolei federal unit in a way that strengthens representation in the relevant areas and ensures the provision of necessary recommendations and technical support. The names of the initial KCC members have reportedly been approved.
The KGC, meanwhile, will begin with seven of the KNU\u2019s current 12 administrative departments and will be responsible for expanding participation and building stronger, more effective departments in line with good governance standards.
In addition, a Department of Women, Youth, and Children\u2019s Affairs has been added as the KGC\u2019s eighth department, and the names of the initial heads of all eight departments have also reportedly been approved.
The statement said this marks the opening of a new chapter for Kawthoolei and that, while building the Kawthoolei federal unit, it will connect with other federal units and continue the struggle against military dictatorship on all fronts.
The newly approved Kawthoolei Revolutionary Period Charter will also be released for public study, and the KNU Central Committee said it will democratically implement a self-determined Kawthoolei federal unit.
\u2e3b<\/li>\n\n\n\n - MDY PDF says it has exposed the military\u2019s intelligence mechanism and will take firm action against former comrades involved
m.CDM, April 10, 2026
The People\u2019s Defense Force Mandalay (Special Operations Unit) has announced that it has uncovered the terrorist junta\u2019s intelligence mechanisms and warned former comrades involved in the network to withdraw immediately, or face decisive action if they continue participating.
The Mandalay PDF (Special Operations Unit) said it has consistently worked to build extensive intelligence networks and prevent the military\u2019s counterintelligence activities, and that in June 2025 it managed to recapture a comrade who had defected to the military side.
That former comrade had reportedly switched sides after being recruited by the junta and was later captured while being sent into resistance-controlled territory to gather intelligence.
Based on the former comrade\u2019s testimony and information from urban-based intelligence networks, the resistance said it was able to understand how the junta\u2019s intelligence mechanism operates.
As a result, those involved in the military\u2019s intelligence system have reportedly been identified and placed on a blacklist.
The statement also warned former comrades who have become involved in the junta\u2019s mechanisms under coercion or pressure to correct their mistakes and leave the enemy\u2019s system as soon as possible.
It explicitly stated that anyone who ignores this warning and continues to remain involved in the enemy\u2019s mechanism will be dealt with firmly.
\u2e3b<\/li>\n\n\n\n - CRPH says the Arakan Army\u2019s firm leadership is a good example for revolutionary forces
m.CDM, April 10
The Committee Representing the Pyidaungsu Hluttaw (CRPH) has stated that the Arakan Army\u2019s disciplined organization and decisive leadership are inspiring and serve as a strong model for all revolutionary forces.
CRPH praised the Arakan Army not only for achieving major military and political successes in the Arakan region, but also for standing firmly on the front lines alongside allied forces in the nationwide struggle to end military dictatorship, while systematically establishing a people\u2019s administrative system in Arakan.
It also paid tribute to the Arakan martyrs and heroes who have sacrificed their lives, blood, and sweat throughout the AA\u2019s 17-year revolutionary journey, as well as to the Arakan fighters currently battling the military dictatorship on various fronts.
CRPH said that the Arakan Army and Arakan people\u2019s aspirations for self-determination and justice are an important component of the revolutionary forces\u2019 shared goal of building a federal democratic union.
It added that all revolutionary forces must unite their separate strengths into one collective force and stand together toward their common objective; only then can they build a federal democratic union that cannot be destroyed not only by the terrorist military dictatorship but by any force.
Therefore, the CRPH declared that it will continue marching hand in hand with the Arakan Army and all allied revolutionary forces, based on mutual understanding, trust, and respect, until the military dictatorship is uprooted.
The Arakan Army was founded on April 10, 2009, in Laiza, Kachin State, by 26 young people, with the aim of building a strong force based on the Rakhita path so that they could shape their own destiny and secure self-determination and freedom.
\u2e3b<\/li>\n\n\n\n - MNDAA and TNLA praise unity between Rakhine people and the Arakan Army, pledge to continue working together until revolutionary goals are achieved
m.CDM, April 10
The brotherhood alliance forces MNDAA and TNLA praised the Arakan Army and the Rakhine people, saying that the capture and administration of nearly all towns in Rakhine State is the result of their unbreakable unity and collective effort. They also pledged to continue working together until revolutionary aspirations are achieved.
The statement came in a congratulatory message sent on April 10, marking the 17th anniversary of the founding of the Arakan Army.
The letter said that the Arakan Army has now managed to capture and administer nearly all townships in Rakhine State while enduring the hardships of revolution in order to provide better governance and a safer social life for all the people there.
MNDAA and TNLA said this achievement is the result of the Arakan Army and the Rakhine people\u2019s strong shared vision, united effort, sacrifice, and solidarity, and that it serves as an example for all ethnic groups in Myanmar.
They also said they are proud to see that, despite political and military pressure, the Arakan Army has overcome challenges and contributed courageously not only to the people of Rakhine but also to the liberation of all people in Myanmar.
The two allied groups further said that the Arakan Army\u2019s standing side by side with the revolutionary people, and its support and guidance for the people\u2019s revolution, reflect its admirable revolutionary spirit and fraternal alliance mindset.
They pledged that, just as they have fought many revolutionary battles together like true brothers under the principle that those with the same goal are allies, they will continue to support one another and work together until their revolutionary objectives are reached.

\u2e3b<\/li>\n\n\n\n - KSCC and IEC urge all Kayan people to unite for the total destruction of military dictatorship
m.CDM, April 10
The Karenni State Consultative Council (KSCC) and the Karenni Interim Executive Council (IEC) have urged all Kayan people to participate collectively in the total destruction of military dictatorship.
The call was made in messages issued on April 10 to mark the 26th Kayan National Day.
Kayan National Day is described as a day that recalls the history, cultural values, and efforts for the survival of the Kayan people.
At present, the Kayan people are still fighting alongside other ethnic groups for self-determination, equality among nationalities, and the building of a federal democratic union.
The KSCC said it stands together with the Kayan people in opposing military dictatorship and unjust oppression, and in seeking justice, equality, and the full realization of human rights.
It therefore urged all Kayan people to preserve their cultural heritage, strengthen unity among themselves, and strive with revolutionary spirit to completely eradicate military dictatorship and build a just society for future generations.
The IEC\u2019s message said Kayan National Day is not only a day to preserve tradition and cultural heritage, but also a day to honor the Kayan martyrs and heroes who gave their blood, sweat, and lives for the building of a new state during the revolutionary period.
The IEC also expressed pride in the Kayan people\u2019s fulfillment of their duties during the revolution and encouraged them by saying that, through joint efforts for the liberation of Karenni and the liberation of the whole country, a strong and united future union will emerge.
\u2e3b<\/li>\n\n\n\n - MDSI says junta leader Min Aung Hlaing is aiming to fully consolidate power while portraying himself as head of an elected government
m.CDM, April 10
The Myanmar Defense and Security Institute (MDSI) said on April 10 that junta leader Min Aung Hlaing, who is portraying himself as though he heads an elected government, is in fact aiming to fully consolidate power.
This claim was made alongside images and commentary under the title describing the junta as a rebranded coup government dominated by former military officers, including those serving in the so-called union government formed through a sham election.
Min Aung Hlaing, who is trying to present himself as if he were heading an elected government, took an oath as president on April 10.
MDSI pointed out that his restructured coup government remains essentially unchanged, with former military officers making up most of its composition. In the list of union ministers, 21 former military officers reportedly account for as much as 70 percent.
Likewise, most regional and state chief ministers, as well as the chair of the Naypyidaw Council, continue to be former military officers. Only two civilians are included, and they too are already serving as chief ministers under the coup administration.
In addition, former military officers have also been appointed to union-level bodies.
Looking at the fact that the self-styled president Min Aung Hlaing is relying on loyal military disciples who will obey his commands, MDSI concluded that his intention is to exercise complete control over power.
\u2e3b<\/li>\n\n\n\n - KIO\/KIA holds mass wedding ceremony for 60 staff and military couples at Laiza headquarters
m.CDM, April 10, 2026
The Kachin Independence Organization\/Kachin Independence Army (KIO\/KIA) reportedly held a collective wedding ceremony for a total of 60 couples made up of staff, officers, warrant officers, and soldiers.
The ceremony was successfully held on April 10 at KIO headquarters in Laiza, with one session in the morning and another in the afternoon.
It was said that the event was organized so that KIO government staff couples who had been unable to hold formal wedding ceremonies due to military, political, and other circumstances could become officially recognized Christian married couples.
The KIO has reportedly organized similar collective weddings before, marrying 46 couples in 2018 and 77 couples in 2020.
In addition, on January 27, 2026, the KIO government\u2019s Northern Regional Administrative Committee also organized a wedding blessing ceremony for 16 staff couples.
