     In States and Regions, insurgent groups supporting terrorism and so-called PDF terrorist groups have been carrying out terrorist acts against non-military targets. These acts include detonating public roads and bridges, dropping bombs, firing heavy arms, using improvised mortars, and setting fire to residential houses in areas where innocent civilians reside, such as wards and villages.

     Since they are conducting such terrorist acts, on 25 April, 2024 at 8:30 AM, KIA armed insurgents and so-called PDF terrorists fired heavy weapons at Ahlinkaung Ward in Momauk Township, Kachin State. The heavy weapon shells exploded within the ward. As a result, U Lazun Naw Li (52 years old) who lives in the ward, sustained injuries from heavy weapon shell shrapnel and was transported to Bhamo Township Public Hospital for medical treatment, it is reported.

     Security personnel are conducting an investigation into the incident involving attacks with heavy weapons, which resulted in the injuries described previously. The aim of this investigation is to take punitive action against the terrorists involved. This action is in accordance with the law and is geared towards upholding stability and peace in the region, it is reported.
