A shock-rocket attack launched against the Light Infantry Battalion 252 (LIB 252) under the 101st Division in Pakokku Township, Magway Region, struck an ammunition depot and enabled seven military deserters to escape, Bo Mway Hauk from the COBRA ONE force told Khit Thit Media.

At around 10:00 PM on May 25, revolutionary forces fired three shock rockets at LIB 252 under the 101st Division in Pakokku Township. While the exact number of military casualties from the attack remains unconfirmed, one of the shock rockets struck an ammunition depot inside the battalion compound (reported as LIB 251/252 area). The strike triggered chaos inside the base, causing the military to immediately shut off all electricity, which allowed seven military deserters to successfully flee and escape.
