CHIN STATE – Locals reported that the barbaric junta army continued to conduct airstrikes in Mindat Township without having a clash.
The fascist army attacked No. 13 District in Mindat Township four times on the night of April 17 using two fighter jets from Tada-U airbase.
“We don’t know the details of the damage yet. We are still trying to contact (the people on the ground). It is very difficult to contact that area. It is near Paletwa,” said a local news source.
One resident of Mindat said that he can’t imagine why the terrorist army is bombarding frequently without any battle.
“They are firing (from the air) without any battle. Civilians suffer as homes are also damaged. Now again we need to hide for safety as the fascist army’s jet is coming,” said a Mindat resident on the morning of April 18.
In addition, the junta council’s Mindat based infantry 274 shelled heavy weapons for at least ten times and those fell into Sanpya and Bawathit Wards, damaging some houses. A child (8) also was injured by the weapon and is under treatment now.
After a clash on April 16, the junta council has been targeting civilians and firing recklessly, a comrade of Chinland Defence Force (CDF) said.
Military council’s army has been conducting multiple airstrikes and heavy weapon shellings in Mindat Township since the start of the year. There have been about 30 airstrikes and many heavy weapons bombarding, according to locals and members of Mindat CDF.
At least eight civilians were reportedly killed in the attack and many were injured.
What is more, Mindat CDF stated that two CDF comrades also fell due to the atrocious junta army’s airstrike.
