On February 1, 2025, marking the fourth anniversary of the SAC's military coup, a confrontation occurred at approximately 2:00 p.m. between the KIA joint forces and the SAC forces in Mai Naung, located in the Inndawgyi region, resulting in civilians being compelled to evacuate their residences.
On February 1, it was reported by local sources that approximately 400 soldiers from the 385th and 386th Infantry Battalions of the SAC moved from Hopin towards the Inndawgyi region, leading to a confrontation with the KIA.
“At approximately 10 am, three military vehicles belonging to the SAC and over 200 soldiers were positioned at the Nantmun, Shanni militia checkpoint, overlooking Inndawgyi Lake. Around 200 soldiers, accompanied by the strategic commander, disembarked on foot from the Nantmun Mountain checkpoint. There have been ongoing discussions regarding territorial expansion towards Mai Naung for the past week, prompting all armed groups to caution residents to exercise vigilance on the fourth anniversary of the military coup,” reported by a local on February 1st.
As a result of the conflict, residents of Mai Naung were seeking refuge in safer areas, apprehensive about potential air strikes. Furthermore, the Nant Mun-Inndawgyi Road was closed as well.
