A military council camp stationed in Phayargyi Kon village, Kyauktaga Township, Bago Region, was attacked and captured by joint forces of the People’s Defense Force and Karen National Liberation Army, resulting in four military council soldiers killed and two captured alive, according to an official from Bago District Battalion 2 (P2-3702).
The attack began around 1:00 AM on June 25th, targeting the military council camp which was manned by approximately 40 personnel. The joint forces, comprising the People’s Defense Force Battalion 3702 and KNLA Brigade 9, successfully captured the camp by 1:40 AM. During the battle, four military council soldiers were killed and two were captured, while the remaining soldiers fled the camp. The resistance forces seized weapons, ammunition, and other military equipment following the operation.
The official stated that the two captured soldiers are currently undergoing necessary interrogation and will be treated according to prisoner of war laws. He emphasized that military operations in the southern region will be intensified, calling for public participation and support. The resistance forces currently face shortages of bulletproof vests, helmets, and ammunition, which can only be addressed through public support and assistance.
During the camp capture operation, two resistance fighters were wounded, but there were no fatalities among the revolutionary forces. After successfully neutralizing the military council camp, the resistance forces tactically withdrew from the area. This battle demonstrates the increasing strength of revolutionary operations within the Bago Region, with resistance forces noting that their successes are made possible through the support and assistance of local civilians.
