In Nyaung-U Township, Mandalay Region, resistance forces conducted two separate mine attacks on military council convoys, resulting in the death of five military council soldiers, according to a representative from the Bagan Bogyoke Cho group. The first attack occurred on March 16th when revolutionary forces targeted a military convoy consisting of two armored vehicles and two military trucks traveling from the Bagan Nyaung-U area toward Chauk town. The attack took place along the Bagan Nyaung-U-Chauk road section.
During the first attack, one military council soldier was killed and four others were injured, while the resistance fighters successfully retreated without suffering any casualties. Later that evening, resistance forces launched a second mine attack targeting military vehicles conducting patrol operations along the Bagan Nyaung-U-Chauk road section, resulting in the death of four additional military council soldiers. These details were confirmed through battle reports from the area.
Rakha, the commander of the Bagan Bogyoke Cho group, provided detailed information about the attacks, explaining that the first operation targeted the main military convoy, while the second attack was directed at patrol units that had been dispatched to investigate the aftermath of the initial incident. Military analysts suggest that these attacks may lead to increased security measures in areas under military council control. The successful operations demonstrate the continued resistance against the military council’s presence in the region, with revolutionary forces maintaining their capability to conduct coordinated attacks against military targets.
