Local residents report that fighting broke out at 3:00 AM today, April 21, between the military dictatorship’s forces and PDF joint forces led by the Karen National Liberation Army (KNLA) in the area between Nyaunglebin and Waw townships in Bago Region.
The clash occurred at Ayaing Kone, located between Sab Su and Sin Ywar, involving revolutionary forces and military-affiliated militia members stationed in an ambush position. Four military weapons were seized, one soldier was killed, and three others are currently missing.
A local resident told DVB, "The Ayaing Kone bridge was also broken. I don't know which group destroyed it. It was a battle between the Brigade 3/PDF joint forces and the Military Council/militia joint forces. Now, the military has closed and is searching the village entrances and exits."
About 20 military personnel were stationed in an ambush at Ayaing Kone. Following the clash and the disappearance of the three soldiers, large numbers of military reinforcements arrived and have blocked off the areas around Sin Ywar and Myit Kyo for inspections.
