MANDALAY DIVISION – Battalion 3 of Myingyan District People’s Defence Force (PDF) has issued a warning not to use the township chain roads connected to Taungtha Township in Myingyan District, Mandalay Division, at night.
It is reported that the road sections of Taungtha – Meiktila, Taungtha – Kyaukpataung, Taungtha – Natogyi, Taung Tha – Myingyan and Taungtha – Ngathayauk which are connected with Taungtha city have been warned not to use at night starting December 14.
Battalion 3 of Myingyan District PDF prohibited people from using those sections of road between 8:00 p.m. and 5:00 a.m.
If it is necessary to travel, they should lower the car window and turn on the interior lights, Myingyan District PDF Battalion 3 said.
It is reported that the ban on using these sections of roads at night is because the junta council forces are conducting military operations using private vehicles.
In the past few days, there were junta council troops entering the villages around Zaratgyi Village near the Welaung Dam in the east of Taungtha City and the local defence forces also attacked them with mines.
