SAGAING DIVISION – Bantbwe Village in Yinmabin Township, a base of the junta subordinate Pyu Saw Htee militia, was attacked with heavy weapons, stated an official from Chindwin Toe Na Yar Force.
On Wednesday (January 10) from 6:30 p.m. till 9:30 p.m., the terrorist junta and Pyu Saw Htee forces stationed in Bantbwe Village were bombarded with 40mm, 60mm, 80mm, 90mm and 120mm mortars and small weapons by the united force of defence forces and the junta casualties are still under investigation.
“Because there were many defence forces (who joined the attack), the number of rounds fired was also a lot. Just our team alone fired over 20 rounds. There were a lot of forces and a lot of shells as well. The junta casualties could be high too. The dogs (junta forces) also returned fire,” said the official from Chindwin Toe Na Yar Force.
