Two civilians were injured and temple buildings were damaged when the terrorist military launched airborne attacks on a temple compound in Sint Kaing village, Wetlet Township, Sagaing Region. According to local sources, a fighter jet from Tada-U Air Base conducted two airstrikes on Sint Kaing village on March 20 at around 9:25 AM.
The airstrikes were carried out in two waves, with the first attack at 9:25 AM and the second at 9:30 AM. It is estimated that 100-pound bombs were used in the attacks. The strikes resulted in the destruction of one temple building and left two civilians with non-life-threatening injuries.
Despite claiming to be religiously devout, the terrorist military council has been deliberately targeting religious buildings and innocent civilians. This intentional destruction of religious structures represents a pattern of violence by the military council, causing fear and anxiety among local residents. Activists point out that the terrorist military is committing war crimes against civilians and violating international laws. The systematic targeting of religious sites and civilian areas has become a characteristic tactic of the military council’s operations, demonstrating their disregard for both religious sanctity and civilian safety.
