CHIN STATE – People’s Defence Army (PDA) Tedim issued an announcement in Chin language with photos, informing that they have recaptured the military base at Kennedy Mountain that was previously recaptured in a junta offensive.
A Chin news source translated the announcement by PDA Tedim, saying that it was about the PDA “recapturing Kennedy Mountain on the 22nd.”
That military base on Kennedy Mountain was previously captured by PDF Zoland in November 2023 but the junta council launched a massive offensive on June 17 and recaptured it.
Then just days after the junta forces recaptured the base on June 18, Chinland Council Coalition that includes PDA Tedim seized back control of the base.
However, PDA Tedim did not mention the details of the battle for the base or casualties.
In addition, the junta forces are also conducting an offensive on Taingan base also in Tedim Township and the Chinland Council Coalition is defending against the offensive while chin sources said that there were junta casualties during the offensive.
Taingan base was captured by Chinland Council Coalition in January this year.
