The Myanmar junta has been conducting airstrikes along the border of Bago Region’s Taungoo District (Htan Tabin Township) and Kayin State’s Thandaunggyi Township since 6 March, resulting in the deaths of four people, including an elderly woman, and injuring many others, according to local residents.
“As far as I know, they began firing 6 March afternoon and continued into the evening. They fired again this morning on 7 March, and about 15 minutes ago, Taungoo Air Force planes flew over the area,” said a local resident from Kui Gyi (San Pya) village at 3:30 pm on 7 March.
From 4 pm on 6 March until 7 March, the Military Council has been conducting airstrikes in Magi Kone, Ye U Taung, and Kyauk Gyi Pauk villages on the border of Htan Tabin Township, as well as in Thapyay Nyunt village, adjacent to Kyaukgyi Pauk village in Thandaunggyi Township. Additionally, the junta has been bombing, shelling, and using machine guns to attack the village of Magyi Taw, which borders both Htan Tabin and Kyaukgyi townships, with aircraft.
