Tatmadaw columns continued detailed regional security operations in Ngalontin Village, located south of ChaungU Township along the ChaungU-Yesagyo road, and discovered a reinforced underground concrete bunker constructed by terrorist insurgents beneath a building situated in farmland about 400 metres east of the village.
Tatmadaw columns continued the security operations along the ChaungU-Yesagyo route through Ngalontin Village and successfully seized Mahtitha Village and Minkhaung Village, where terrorists had entered, based themselves, and used as military camps.
It was found that the terrorists had fortified the villages by constructing bunkers with sandbags inside civilians’ homes, religious buildings, and public buildings. They had also planted landmines throughout the villages and dug defensive trenches inside residential compounds, using the areas as heavily fortified military bases.
Tatmadaw columns are currently carrying out rehabilitation and security operations, including the removal of destruction and debris caused by terrorist groups and landmine clearance efforts, to enable locals to return to their homes as quickly as possible. Moreover, the necessary regional security operations are also continuing in and around the villages. — MNA/KTZH
