SHAN STATE – The spokesperson of the Myanmar National Democratic Alliance Army (MNDAA) said that it has captured two more camps of the junta council in Kokang Region on November 23.
This was in response to questions regarding the status of Operation 1027 in Kokang.
“There were junta camps captured in Kokang Region, one called Lwishwe in Shishen Area and Rihu Hill in Toneshan Region, two hills were captured,” said the MNDAA spokesperson.
Including this latest capture, MNDAA has captured 166 junta outposts within one month of Operation 1027. As the Ta’ang National Liberation Army (TNLA), also part of the operation, has similarly captured at least 46 junta outposts, it can be said that the Three Brotherhood Alliance has successfully captured 212 junta camps and outposts.
The MNDAA spokesperson added that the junta council continued with its airstrikes on November 23 and has used chemical bombs at the battle in Namsalap of Hsenwi Township.
“Four chemical bombs were dropped in Namsalap battle. Several of our soldiers were poisoned but there has been no threats to their lives so far. The side effects of this poison include headaches and nausea,” said the spokesperson.
MNDAA has also mentioned in its release in Chinese that some of its members suffered from nausea and vomiting due to the chemical bomb attacks of the junta council.
The junta council has started using chemical warfare in recent battles. Similar chemical bombs were used during the Minekyet battle in Lashio on November 4. TNLA has also announced that the junta council attacked them with chemical bombs on November 18 after TNLA has captured Sakhanthit security hill in Namkhan.
