Clashes at Terrorist Military Police Station and Checkpoint 30 Miles from Nay Pyi Taw Leave Nine Dead, Including a Major Nay Pyi Taw, July 25

Yesterday, Nay Pyi Taw PDF attacked police stations and checkpoints in Shwe Pyin village, 30 miles from the capital controlled by the brutal military regime. Nay Pyi Taw PDF released a statement saying that an attack took place on July 25, killing nine soldiers, including a major.

The police station and the brutal military checkpoint in Shwe Pyan village where the fighting took place are located on the Magway-Nay Pyi Taw road. Revolutionary forces frequently attack members of the brutal military junta in and around the towns of Myittha, Taungupyi, and Bishanow, which are located near the Myeik-Nay Pyi Taw road.

The commander of Nay Pyi Taw Battalion No. 803 said, "There are about 30 of them. We were able to capture the camp within an hour of the battle, and there was a death of a major. Since it's connected to the highway, there are strict checks on people's movement and abuses against the public," he said.

The commander of Nay Pyi Taw Battalion 803 said the camp was captured within an hour of the fighting, and the battalion's fighters were able to visually confirm the death of a major. The enemy forces abandoned the camp without conducting artillery, reinforcements, or airstrikes during the battle.

A statement from the Nay Pyi Taw 803 Battalion stated that the Shwe Pyin police station and a terrorist military checkpoint were burned down after the battle. Similarly, MA 1 _ 3 pieces, MA 2 (light machine gun) _ 1 piece, G 3 _ 1 piece, 40mm grenade launcher _ 1, various ammunition boxes _ 10, (14) 6 mines, 9 40mm grenades, 9 hand grenades, 1 anti-personnel mine, approximately 200 rounds of assorted ammunition, 2 phones, and approximately 3.5 million kyat in cash were seized.

The No. 803 Battalion in Nay Pyi Taw reported that they had to leave one howitzer behind due to transportation difficulties. The No. 803 Battalion in Nay Pyi Taw reported that as of last night (July 25), the terrorist military group has not made any military movements. This operation was carried out by Battalions (803) and (903) of the Nay Pyi Taw Region Military Command, Area of Operations (2).
