KAREN STATE – Due to the bombardment of chemical bombs by the terrorist army that entered the city of Kawkarate with a large force, some of the revolutionary joint forces and residents were intoxicated. An official from the White Tiger Column said they suffered from dizziness and vomiting.
Starting yesterday, April 20th, a large number of Junta Council troops from the 97th Infantry Battalion of the Terrorist War Council based in Kawkarate City entered the northern part of Kokraket City by dropping chemical bombs with a drone and entered the column with a large force.
As a result of the attack using chemical bombs, the revolutionary forces and some residents in the city were poisoned by chemical poisoning and became intoxicated and vomited. It is reported that the ground troops were forced to withdraw from some areas of the city, suffering from suffocation.
“The battle is not over yet. Some parts of the ground in the city had to be temporarily abandoned. Still restless. The war dogs are dropping chemical bombs with drones. That’s why the comrades were dizzy and vomited and they were also suffocating. We don’t know the ground update status yet,” an official from the Tiger White column said.
Since April 11th, KNLA joint forces have been resisting and attacking the terrorist troops that came up to support Myawaddy city using land and the air forces in the vicinity of Kawkarate city. The terrorist army also fires heavy weapons. It is reported that the aerial bombardment of Kawkarate and nearby villages has forced the local people to flee.
