Junta Ramps up Use of Paramotors in Kyaukphyu Township, Arakan State

The junta has increased its use of paramotors (motorised paragliders) to bomb targets from the air in Kyaukphyu Township in Arakan (Rakhine) State as fighting has intensified there.

Paramotor pilots have been frequently spotted carrying out training flights over Pyinphymaw and Ngalapwae wards in Kyaukphyu Town, the capital of Kyaukphyu Township, since the third week of March.
