Sagaing, November 5

Two jet fighters under the terrorist military based in Homalin Township, Sagaing Region, carried out six airstrikes today (November 5) near Thaphanseik Dam in Kyunhla Township, causing damage to civilian houses, two local sources told Red Peacock News Media.

Today (November 5), at around 4:00 p.m., a jet fighter from Homalin town carried out bombing attacks in the area surrounding Thaphanseik Dam.

Similarly, at around 5:00 p.m., for the second time, a jet fighter from Homalin town attacked the area around Thaphanseik Dam.

A local source said, “There is no fighting on this side. They are simply firing at the rafts operating on the reservoir. This time they have come and attacked residential houses as well.”

According to local sources, following the airstrikes, four civilian houses were damaged.

The gold-mining raft sites near Thaphanseik Dam are frequently subjected to unprovoked airstrikes by the terrorist military, resulting in civilian casualties.
