SAGAING DIVISION – It is reported that the revolutionary forces tried to blow up military vessels transporting terrorist soldiers along the Chindwin River with ten mines.
On October 21, four military vessels streamed down the Chindin River and one of them docked at Kangyigon Village (Pyu Saw Htee base) in Chaung U Township. When the ship took off again after loading the soldiers and supplies from the village, resistance forces attacked it with prepared explosives.
The terrorist soldiers also fired 60mm mortars and machine guns but the comrades were not harmed at all, as reported by the resistance forces.
However, it was reported that three civilians from a village alongside the river were injured (but not critically) due to the heavy weapons fired by military soldiers as they went down the river.
The aforementioned attack was carried out by Lightning Division (Monywa District Battalion 12, Company 3), Nga Moe Yeik Column (Monywa District Battalion 12), Yanshin Local People’s Defence Force, and Chaung U Local Defence Force (CLDF).
