TANINTHARYI DIVISION – According to the local residents, when the Junta’s Council troops with more than 100 reinforcements were going towards Kanet-thiri village, they were intercepted and attacked along the road.
It is said that a total of six vehicles, including four dump trucks that came down from Dawei this morning, arrived at Min Dap Village. After that, they stopped the car near the Win Wa Bridge, and at around 1:30 in the afternoon, around 120 reinforcements entered Kanet-thiri village.
At around 4:00 p.m., a mine was blown near the Weiyit cemetery between Kamyaing village and Weiyit village, and after that, the sound of shooting from both sides was heard around Kamyaing village, the local said.
“They left some by the car and went down on foot. I think it was to get the soldiers inside and the wounded,” said a local man.
The details of the attack that took place this evening are not yet known. In Kanet-thiri village, some soldiers of the military council have been there for the past two days. They arrested many villagers in Phaya- Koe-Hsu monastery, and a house has been set on fire.
“About 50 people, including monks, have been arrested. They have also cut off their communications. They can’t answer their phones,” said a woman from the village.
Most of those arrested are men, and there are around 10 women. There are also reports that four of those arrested escaped and three were killed when the military council opened fire, but this has not yet been independently confirmed.
It is said that the villagers of Kanet-thiri village have fled nearby, and the elderly villagers are still in the village. There are about 30 military council soldiers in the column in that village, and on the morning of the 8th of this month, it was the same column that was intercepted and attacked between Kamyaing village and Ragne village.
At least five military council soldiers were killed in the attack, and the injured are said to be under treatment at the monastery where they are currently stationed.
