CHIN STATE – The People’s Defense Force (PDF)-Zoland and the Chin National Defense Force (CNDF) continued to attack the Military Council forces in Tedim Town, Chin State.
The aforementioned local defense forces, which are members of Chin Brotherhood Alliance, launched an offensive attack against the Military Council troops in Tedim on May 26 night and were able to capture some military camp sites the next day (May 27). However, the town was burned by the military council and thus local defense forces stopped military operations for a while and re-launched the guerrilla attack in early June.
The Military Council said to have set fire to some houses in Tedim on June 1 and June 4 morning.
“The attack in Tedim is a guerrilla-style. The entire town was controlled by military force. But (PDF Zoland and CNDF) are fighting back in guerrilla style. On June 1, around 9:00 p.m., there was an arson (by junta) in Lwel Bwe Ward. About three or four houses caught on fire. Moreover, on the morning of June 4, we saw a fire (flames and smokes) in Tedim town from a distance. I don’t know for sure how much the fire would destroyed,” said a Chin’s source.
The source also said that due to the current fighting, most of the residents are fleeing the war.
On the other hand, the joint forces under the Ministry of Defense of the Chin State Government, including the Chin National Army (CNA), are already deployed near Tedim and will attack the Military Council together if invited by the Chin Brotherhood Army, stated the CNA spokesperson Salai Htetni.
