In Nyaung-U Township, Mandalay Region, revolutionary forces conducted two separate mine attacks on military council convoys, resulting in the death of five military council soldiers, according to a spokesperson from the Bagan Byoe Choe group. The incidents occurred on March 16th, with the first attack killing one soldier and wounding four others, while the second attack later that day resulted in the death of four more military council soldiers.
The first attack targeted a military convoy consisting of two armored vehicles and two military trucks traveling from Bagan-Nyaung-U toward Chauk. During this operation, revolutionary forces successfully carried out the attack without suffering any casualties and were able to withdraw safely. The attack caused significant damage to the military council’s forces and temporarily halted their military operations in the area, according to local residents. The precision of the attack demonstrated the revolutionary forces’ growing tactical capabilities in their resistance against the military council’s presence in the region.
Later that evening, a second attack occurred when military council forces attempted to conduct a patrol of the area. The revolutionary forces launched another mine attack, resulting in the immediate death of four military council soldiers and causing damage to their vehicles, as confirmed by the Bagan Byoe Choe group. In both attacks, the revolutionary forces demonstrated strategic planning and execution, managing to inflict casualties on the military council forces while avoiding any losses among their own ranks. These successful operations represent continued resistance against the military council’s attempts to maintain control over the region, with local revolutionary forces effectively disrupting their movements and military activities.
