Tatmadaw columns marching from Kalay conducted security measures on 29 June and found a suspected building about 2,000 metres from the northern part of Kyundaw Yeshin village. Therefore, the column strategically cleared the building, and armed engagements with the terrorist groups occurred. The column occupied their camps, and the terrorists retreated after suffering heavy casualties.
It found one
corrugated iron-roofed wooden house used by the armed groups, four temporary
thatched huts capable of accommodating about 10 people each, cooking facilities
and detention cells.
While
Tatmadaw columns were continuing the security operations along the Kalay-Tamu
road, they recaptured Kannan Village yesterday. The village was occupied and
used as a military base by the armed groups, and the columns seized bodies,
weapons and other equipment during the operation.
When the
terrorists temporarily controlled Kannan Village, they disregarded the welfare
of locals using the houses, religious buildings and public facilities, planted
mines in compound and roads, built bunkers on both sides of roads and dug
defensive trenches in compounds.
Tatmadaw
columns will undertake rehabilitation efforts to ensure the safe return of
locals, including clearing landmines planted by the insurgents, repairing roads
and bridges damaged during the conflict, and facilitating the reopening of
schools. Moreover, the security operations would continue at an accelerated
pace to restore control of the Kalay-Tamu road as quickly as possible and
support the prompt recovery of the social and economic livelihoods of locals.
