According to statements from People’s Defense Forces (PDF), nine members of the military council forces were killed in various engagements across Myanmar on April 14. These casualties resulted from operations conducted by local People’s Defense Forces and revolutionary alliance groups in different regions. The resistance forces continue to engage military council troops in response to ongoing violence perpetrated against civilians by the military council.
The military council forces have been conducting forced military recruitment, arresting civilians for military training, burning villages, and killing innocent civilians, which has led resistance groups to maintain their offensive operations against military council positions. While the exact casualties cannot be independently verified on the ground, reports from People’s Defense Forces indicate ongoing clashes continue throughout the country. The reported casualties demonstrate the continuing resistance against the military council’s oppressive actions against the civilian population.
