In Nabat Village, Myaung Township, Sagaing Region, two civilians were killed and homes were destroyed when the junta carried out a bombing using gyrocopters, according to a member of a local resistance group speaking to Yangon Khit Thit News.
On the morning of January 5, three gyrocopters flying from the Monywa NaMaKha base bombed Nabat Village in Myaung Township even though no fighting was taking place. During the airstrike, bombs directly struck houses in the village, killing a woman inside her home — whose body was reportedly cut in half at the waist — and another nearby civilian, while others were injured and multiple houses were damaged.
