In Nga Tharauk Sub-township of Mandalay Region, revolutionary alliance forces successfully encircled and attacked a military council column, resulting in the deaths of over 70 military council troops, according to an official from the Bagan People’s Force. The entire military column was eliminated in the battle, and the revolutionary forces seized weapons and ammunition along with the bodies of the deceased soldiers. This engagement represents a significant loss for the military council forces in the region.
Meanwhile, military council leader Min Aung Hlaing has awarded first-class technology excellence awards to Colonel Myat Min Oo, who had falsely alleged electoral fraud in the 2020 general election to justify the military coup. This award ceremony demonstrates the military council’s continued recognition of those who supported their illegal seizure of power. Revolutionary forces point out that this is another example of how the military council rewards those who assist in maintaining their illegitimate control over the country.
In Pathein city of Ayeyarwady Region, an incident occurred at the downtown police station where a man armed with two pairs of scissors attacked the facility, resulting in injuries to four police officers, including station chief Kyaw Zay Latt. The attacker also sustained gunshot wounds during the confrontation. Local residents suggest this incident is connected to the ongoing political instability in the country. The situation reflects the continuing tension and unrest that has persisted throughout Myanmar since the military takeover.
