On May 6, revolutionary joint forces targeted the junta column exiting the factory with three landmines west of the junction of the Pathein-Monywa Road and the Seikphyu-Pauk Road. During the attack, a junta drone operator was hit by a mine and killed. The drones he was controlling then crashed back onto the soldiers, causing the attached explosives to detonate.
