MAGWAY DIVISION – Western LDF comrades attacked junta soldiers and police at Kanma Police Station on Wednesday, August 9, at 4:18 p.m.
Around 30 junta members were present at the police station, where they had built three or four bunkers and had been extorting money from passersby. This prompted the comrades to attack, as stated by Mr. Tayza, an official of the Western LDF.
“We attacked them because the junta forces had constructed three or four bunkers in front of the police station and had been extorting money from civilians. Ten groups jointly carried out the attack, engaging the junta soldiers and police at the bunkers. Initially, we fired rifles and then advanced with small weapons. The rifle shots resulted in the incapacitation of two junta members, and their casualties are still under investigation,” explained Mr. Tayza.
Following this, the junta soldiers stationed at the police station indiscriminately fired heavy artillery shells. The attack was conducted in collaboration with the Western LDF, Pakokku District Battalion (13), Pakokku PDF Division 1 of Battalion 1, Myaing PDF Division 2 of Battalion 1, Galon PDF, Scorpion PDF-Myaing, Myaing Underground PDF, Royal Tiger, BLY PDF, and Western Ayeyar Guerilla Force.
