Innocent Civilian Injured in Heavy Weapon Attack by So-Called PDF Terrorist Group in Shwebo Township of Sagaing Region
12 July 2025
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 10 July 2025 at 8:35 PM, a report stated that a man with shrapnel injuries was admitted to Mandalay Public Hospital in Chanayetharzan Township of Mandalay Region. When security personnel arrived at the hospital for further investigation, the victims was identified as U Kyaw Zin (30 years old), a resident of No. 9 Ward in Shwebo Town of Sagaing Region. Around 11:00 AM, while the victim was fishing at a lake within a teak forest approximately five miles west of Shwebo Town, a heavy weapon shell, reportedly fired by a so-called PDF terrorist group, exploded nearby, causing his injuries, 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.
