The military council forces conducted aerial attacks on Lin Yan Village (New) and Kan Gyi Village in northern Sagaing Township, Sagaing Region, according to local sources. The first attack occurred at 12:40 PM on April 29, targeting Lin Yan Village (New), followed by a second attack at 12:52 PM on Kan Gyi Village. The attacks were carried out using fighter jets, though the extent of damage and casualties from these bombardments remains unclear according to local residents.
Military operations in Sagaing Township have intensified, with the military council forces increasing both ground operations and aerial attacks, according to revolutionary sources. The military council has split their forces into multiple columns for offensive operations while simultaneously conducting daily attacks using helicopters and fighter jets. These attacks have forced thousands of local civilians to flee their homes, leading to severe shortages of food supplies and lack of access to healthcare services, causing significant hardship for displaced communities.
The military council’s offensive operations in Sagaing Region have resulted in continuous incidents of village burnings, civilian arrests, and killings. Local residents have been forced to abandon their homes and agricultural activities, seeking refuge in forests and monasteries. Aid organizations have expressed serious concerns about the situation in internally displaced persons (IDP) camps, particularly regarding the lack of basic healthcare services for children, elderly people, and pregnant women. The humanitarian situation continues to deteriorate as military operations persist, leaving civilians in increasingly vulnerable conditions with limited access to essential services and supplies.
