During the attack, one woman sustained injuries, though her condition was reported as non-critical by the We Love Myaing group. The airstrike also caused significant damage to civilian infrastructure, with three residential houses being destroyed in the bombardment. The military council continues to target civilian areas with military aircraft, demonstrating a pattern of attacks against non-military targets and civilian populations.
