Terrorists explode railway track, RGC train

TERRORISTS attacked the RGC-125 train, which is used to inspect the Phyu-Toungoo railway section, between Nyaungchayhtauk and Kywepwe railway stations using small weapons from the side of the Yangon-Mandalay railway section yesterday, and no one was injured in the attack.

Similarly, the mine planted by terrorists at milepost 144/10- 11 between Nyaungchayhtauk and Kywepwe railway stations, along the Yangon-Mandalay railway route in Ottwin, Bago Region, exploded yesterday morning. The uptrain rail track was destroyed, and the single rail system was adapted along the Nyaungchayhtauk and Kywepwe route of down train rail track.

Regional officials and security forces members proceeded to the site promptly for inspection, and the MR staff replaced two destroyed rail tracks to reopen the railway section expeditiously. After the maintenance, the railway section was reopened.

Since 1 February 2021, these terrorist groups have been implicated in 175 mining incidents and explosions within railway areas and stations, 80 blasts on railway bridges, and 16 instances of torching stations and employee housings. Their actions aim to destabilize the rule of law and endanger the safety of travellers, drawing widespread condemnation from the public.
