Resistance forces capture Indaw Town after months of fighting

Resistance forces have fully captured Indaw Town in northern Sagaing Region, near the Kachin State border, following nearly eight months of attacks, sources said on April Monday.

Armed groups operating under the National Unity Government (NUG) and the All Burma Students’ Democratic Front (ABSDF) led the offensive. Allied resistance groups captured Japan Cave Hill, the junta’s final position in Indaw, around 8pm on Monday, according to a frontline source.

“Yes, they captured it tonight,” the source said. “Many prisoners of war were taken as they surrendered and laid down their weapons. Throughout the day, junta aircraft were dropping bombs. There were casualties on both sides.”
