SAGAING DIVISION – An official of True Fighter Myinmu Urban Guerrilla Force (TFMUGF) stated that they carried out a grenade attack on the junta policemen coming out from Myinmu City Police Station, Myinmu Town, Sagaing Division and one police man was killed while the counter fire by the junta forces killed a civilian.
On March 8 at around 10:30 p.m., TFMUGF was said to have thrown a grenade onto five junta policemen heading from Myinmu City Police Station to Myanma Economic Bank to switch patrol duty with two motorcycles when they arrived near the Myinmu City Stone Pillar. The grenade reportedly hit the second motorcycle which three junta thugs were riding. Subsequently, one of them died on the spot and two had been hospitalized due to serious injuries.
“They (junta policemen) used to switch patrol duty at the bank at 10:30 p.m. That’s why we prepared the ambush near the stone pillar and attacked with a grenade. They were coming with two on the motorcycle in the front and three on another motorcycle. The grenade landed on the one in the back. Once the grenade landed, it exploded immediately. The explosion was intense. As the electricity was off in Myinmu downtown, we had the best situation to carry out the mission. The dead junta policeman’s funeral has been prepared at the entrance of Myinmu Police Station. The other two are said to be receiving treatment at the hospital,” an official of TFMUGF elaborated.
The stated attack was carried out by the cooperation of TFMUGF and Zero Guerrilla Force (Myingyan) and the revolutionary forces were said to be able to retreat successfully.
Due to the junta policemen’s indiscriminate counterattack during the attack, a woman sitting in her home got a bullet wound in her thigh. And when the junta thugs recklessly fired when they picked up the motorcycle damaged by the explosion on March 9 at around 5:30 a.m., one civilian was said to be killed.
“When the junta dogs (soldiers) recklessly fired after the blast, one old lady living in a building slightly opposite from the monastery near the stone pillar got shot in her thigh. And then, they indiscriminately fired again when they picked up the motorcycle early next morning, and it killed one civilian,” an official of TFMUGF said.
