It is reported that the SAC forces are marching in columns and moving in convoys with a large number of military forces for recapturing the military camp areas that were seized by the KIA joint forces. In addition to the SAC’s aerial bombardment, at the present, there is military tension in Momauk region and Hpakant-Seng Tawng region every day.


The military operations of the two armed-forces launched on September 4th in the Hpakant region and there was daily arson and destruction of the residentials by the SAC forces. Additionally, the SAC forces shelled bombs more than 2 times with the aerial in Seng Tawng Ward (3) in the afternoon of September 16th for the first time, and in the evening, they shelled bombs at the place near Kyauk Twe Taung again. Moreover, it is said that the SAC forces stationed at Ta Ma Hkan village are firing heavy artillery constantly to the Hpakant-Seng Tawng area.


It is known that 2 civilians were killed on the spot due to the heavy artillery by the SAC and another 5 civilians were injured and are being taken for medical treatment at Hpakant General Hospital. It is also said that on the same day, there was a fierce skirmish between the KIA joint forces and the SAC’s column which came out from Kyauk Twe Taung.


Furthermore, there were nearly 200 residentials which have been destroyed due to the arson of the SAC in Seng Tawng village, where the military situation is escalating. According to General Naw Bu, who is in charge of KIA information, the KIA/KPDF joint forces have also arrested nearly 200 drug users who worked together with the SAC to carry out the arson, but they are still being interrogated due to the flimsy evidence.


Similarly, daily offensive skirmishes were fierce in the Momauk region. It is stated that the KIA joint forces completely captured the SAC’s 437th Infantry Battalion on August 19th. Therefore, the SAC has been trying to recapture the 437th Infantry Battalion and the counter-offensive skirmishes have been launched by the SAC forces since August 24th.


As reported by the front-line sources, since then, the SAC forces have been launching not only aerial bombardment but also offensive attacks in columns in the Momauk region. Moreover, it is said that the armed-clashes between the two forces are escalating day by day.
