24 June 2025

Terrorists committing inhumane acts have been engaging in battles, firing heavy weapons and improvised rockets and dropping bombs using drones into the residential areas, including towns, wards and villages.
Since they are committing such terrorist acts, on 23 June 2025 at 7:40 PM, a report stated that a deceased man with shrapnel injuries was brought to Mandalay General Hospital in Chanayetharzan Township of Mandalay Region. When security personnel arrived at the hospital for further investigation, the victim was identified as U Aung San Oo (50 years old), a resident of Mya Kan Thar Village in Patheingyi Township. The incident occurred when a so-called PDF terrorist group, fired heavy weapons into the victim’s village. One of the shells exploded within the village. As a result, U Aung San Oo died on the spot, it is reported.
Due to the heinous acts of armed terrorists such as engaging in battles and firing of heavy weapons and improvised rockets within towns, wards and villages where innocent civilians peacefully reside, innocent civilians have been injured or killed. Consequently, local residents are protesting vehemently against these acts of terrorism, completely refusing to accept them. Security personnel are intensifying necessary security measures in collaboration with the local residents, it is reported.
