Terrorists are ruthlessly carrying out abductions, killings and armed attacks, using both heavy and small weapons, on wards and villages, as well as conducting drone strikes, all with the intent to harm civilians and spread fear. They are also indiscriminately planting landmines on public roads, targeting government offices with explosives and engaging in destructive acts without regard for reason or morality.

Since they are conducting such terrorist acts, on 12 August 2025 at 10:50 AM, U Zaw Myo Aung (42 years old), a resident of No.3, Ward in Kawkareik Township of Kayin State and U Tu (65 years old), a resident of Nant Taw Toe Village in Kawkareik Township of Kayin State, were travelling in a white coloured light truck (license plate 8M-XXXX) from Hpa-an Town to Kawkareik Town. When their vehicle reached an area near Nant Taw Toe Village, an improvised rocket shell fired by a combined group of pro-terrorism KNU members, along with so-called PDF terrorists exploded nearby. As a result, both men sustained shrapnel injuries and were transported to Kawkareik District Public Hospital for medical treatment, it is reported.

It has been reported that the security personnel are investigating the culprits of the acts of terrorism from the above incident to take effective action in accordance with the law.
