\u2e3b<\/li>\n\n\n\n - SCEF says it has formed a Military Strategy Committee for victory in the war and will move forward under \u201cOne Command, One Policy, One Strategy\u201d
m.CDM, April 12, 2026
The Steering Council for the Emergence of a Federal Democratic Union (SCEF) has announced that it has formed a \u201cMilitary Strategy Coordination and Command Committee\u201d in order to completely uproot the military dictatorship and achieve victory in the war.
This was announced by members of the council\u2019s secretariat during SCEF\u2019s first press conference, held on the evening of April 11.
Secretariat member Salai Htet Ni said that the committee was formed not for leadership by a single organization, but to align differences in military strategy between the Spring Revolution forces and the Ethnic Revolutionary Organizations (EROs) and to fight in unity under \u201cOne Command, One Policy, One Strategy.\u201d
In addition, secretariat member Daw Zin Mar Aung said that within the next 60 days, SCEF will prioritize efforts such as:
\u2022 holding discussions to bring in new members,
\u2022 strengthening coordination in five policy-based sectors and in strategic integration,
\u2022 and securing support from both domestic and international communities.
Although the Three Brotherhood Alliance groups from northern Myanmar \u2014 MNDAA, TNLA, and AA \u2014 are not yet formal members of SCEF, U Aung San Myint confirmed that SCEF remains in constant political and military contact with them and is working closely with them as firm allies.
SCEF also clarified that it was not formed as a rival to the National Unity Consultative Council (NUCC), but rather as a mechanism to practically implement, in political and military terms, the agreements that previously existed only on paper.
Regarding the prospect of talks with the military commission\/fake government, Padoh Saw Ta Doh Moo said that this would only be possible if the military accepts key points such as:
\u2022 withdrawing from politics,
\u2022 drafting a new constitution,
\u2022 and implementing transitional justice during the transition period.

\u2e3b<\/li>\n\n\n\n - Junta airstrikes on Mindat with three fighter jets damage more than 20 buildings and homes; casualties reported
m.CDM, April 12
As the Thingyan festival draws near, the terrorist military reportedly carried out repeated airstrikes on Mindat Town in Chin State using three fighter jets, damaging more than 20 buildings and houses and causing casualties, according to local news sources in the Mindat area.
The attacks took place at around 10:00 p.m. on April 11, when the military launched about eight bombing runs over the town.
A local source said that two jet fighters from Tada-U and one from Magway Air Base carried out about eight indiscriminate attacks, using heavy bombs including incendiary bombs, damaging more than 20 buildings and houses as well as four vehicles.
Because the three fighter jets attacked simultaneously, homes caught fire and there were casualties, according to preliminary information.
After Chin Brotherhood forces and allies captured Mindat in December 2024, the military has been unable to launch a ground offensive there and has instead been repeatedly carrying out airstrikes.
Similarly, on March 31, the military also bombed the rural administrative office in East Quarter, Mindat, damaging buildings and injuring one person, according to military records.
\u2e3b<\/li>\n\n\n\n - Junta troops burn and destroy two villages in Myingyan, arrest seven civilians including a blind elderly man; airstrike in Ledo destroys five homes
m.CDM, April 12, 2026
In Myingyan Township, Mandalay Region, terrorist military troops reportedly entered the area, burned and destroyed Htein Pan village and Ywar Thit village, and arrested seven civilians, including a blind elderly man, using them as human shields.
On April 12, junta troops entered the area and began setting fire to homes in Htein Pan village.
They then advanced into Ywar Thit village, first bombing a building where medical treatment was being provided using a drone, and then systematically burning houses starting from the southern part of the village.
Because of the junta column\u2019s arson attacks, nearly the entire village was reduced to ashes, and local residents have had to flee their homes even during the Thingyan period.
The junta troops had reportedly threatened in advance, using loudspeakers, that they would burn the villages to the ground. They also captured seven civilians aged over 60, who had been sheltering in the forest, and used them as human shields.
Among those arrested was a blind elderly man, and as of now there has been no contact with them and they have not yet been released.
In addition, in KNU-controlled territory in Bago Region, Kler Lwee Htoo (Nyaunglebin) District, Ledo (Kyaukkyi) Township, the junta reportedly used three motorized paragliders on April 9 to drop six 120 mm bombs into Thit Phayaung Tan village.
As a result, four homes belonging to local civilians were damaged. The junta also bombed Kaw Le Deh village with a jet fighter, damaging one house and one chicken coop, according to a KNU statement.

The statement documented civilian deaths and destruction of civilian property caused by a junta military column operating along the Yonsigyi\u2013Taungtha road from April 4 to April 11.
In the early morning of April 8, the military column reportedly split into four units and entered Thanbo village, where they set homes on fire. At 11:00 a.m., motorized paragliders coming from the Meiktila side dropped bombs on Shwe Sigyi village, damaging some civilian homes.
On April 10, about 50 troops from the same column entered Panpaung Ywarma village via Chaungwin village, burned homes again, and released three civilians whom they had captured in Mae Taw village on April 8.
Then on April 11, the column set fire to snack shops near the Panpaung junction checkpoint and the telecom tower, before withdrawing back toward Taungtha town.
From April 4 to April 11, a total of about 315 civilian homes in Panpaung, Mae Taw, and East Thanbo villages were burned down. Two civilians from Panpaung village were burned to death, while air and bomb attacks killed eight more civilians from Panpaung, Mae Taw, and East Thanbo villages, injured four, and killed six cattle, according to records released by the Taungtha Public Movement Committee.

\u2e3b<\/li>\n\n\n\n - Shwebo District Military Command No. 1 issues strict rules for PDF fighters to follow during Thingyan
m.CDM, April 12, 2026
The People\u2019s Defense Force Shwebo District Military Command No. 1 issued a statement on April 12 setting out special rules for battalions, units, and local PDF fighters under its command to strictly observe during the traditional Thingyan period.

It also clearly forbids:
\u2022 drinking alcohol while on duty,
\u2022 disorderly or inappropriate celebration,
\u2022 and negligence of duty.
In addition, personnel are warned not to enter bars or beer shops for drinking, whether in uniform or civilian clothing.
They are also especially warned not to become involved in any fights during the Thingyan period. Anyone leaving their assigned area must obtain prior permission from superior officers, and if traveling in groups, there must be at least one officer and one military police (MP) member present to supervise and maintain discipline.
They are further instructed to report any unusual incidents in their surroundings to higher command without delay.

\u2e3b<\/li>\n\n\n\n - Kani Township Emergency Administrative Central Committee urges people not to hold crowded, festive Thingyan water pavilions during this time of multiple dangers
m.CDM, April 12
Because the public is currently facing many kinds of danger, the Kani Township Emergency Administrative Central Committee, under the Ministry of Home Affairs and Immigration of the National Unity Government, has appealed to the public not to organize crowded and overly festive celebrations at Thingyan water pavilions.
The committee said the appeal was made because the entire country is now engaged in resistance against the terrorist military group, which unlawfully seized state power.
It also stated that the terrorist military has shown no humanity, repeatedly carrying out airstrikes on public places such as hospitals, schools, and religious buildings, burning villages, and arresting, torturing, and killing civilians, thereby destroying people\u2019s lives, homes, and property.
For these reasons, the committee earnestly urged parents, civilians, and revolutionary forces in Kani Township to show sympathy for people who are facing multiple dangers and living in grief, and to refrain during this year\u2019s Thingyan period from building water pavilions, blaring loud music from speakers, and engaging in noisy or crowded celebrations.
\u2e3b<\/li>\n\n\n\n - Dawei PaKaPha provides food supplies for a second time to displaced civilians from Yebyu\/Thayetchaung area
m.CDM, April 12
The Ohn Aww military column of Dawei Township PaKaPha announced that it had provided food supplies for a second time to war-displaced civilians in the lower part of Thayetchaung Township, Tanintharyi Region.
The announcement was made on April 10 under the \u201cFrom the People to the People\u201d program.
Following the battle to capture the junta\u2019s Win Wa camp, civilians who had been displaced by the aftermath and forced to flee to safety were given supplies including rice, cooking oil, instant noodles, and canned fish.
The fighters from Dawei PaKaPha\u2019s Ohn Aww column also expressed gratitude and recognition, on behalf of the displaced civilians, to the South Korea-based overseas support group and to each individual who helped in one way or another.
It is also reported that the first round of aid for displaced civilians had been supported by the Aar Man support group of Dawei youth in Malaysia.
After revolutionary allied forces captured the junta\u2019s Win Wa military camp on March 11 along Road No. 8 in Thayetchaung Township, small clashes have continued in the surrounding area, and junta airstrikes are still occurring, so local residents remain displaced.
