People’s Defense Force seizes town in Sagaing Region bordering Kachin State during ceasefire

The People’s Defense Force (PDF) in Sagaing Region, along with its allied resistance forces, reported they had seized Indaw town, which borders Kachin State, after capturing the remaining regime outpost on a hill locally known as Japan Cave in Indaw Township on Monday.

“There were fatalities on both sides,” a PDF member told DVB. But the exact number of casualties wasn’t shared. It added that resistance forces launched an assault on a regime column emerging from the cave on April 1, which eventually led to the fall of the outpost seven days later.
