Junior Assistant Teacher Escapes from So-Called PDF Terrorist Group in Mahlaing Township of Mandalay Region

     Terrorist groups have been engaging in battles, carrying out attacks using heavy weapons, drones to drop bombs and improvised explosive devices across towns and villages in various states and regions. Moreover, they are committing inhumane acts of terror and criminal activities—including abducting and extorting money from civil servants' families and local civilians, as well as killings.

          Since they are conducting such terrorist acts, on 23 June 2025 at around 10:40 AM, U Myo Myint (27 years old), a junior assistant teacher of the Basic Education Primary School in Myit Kyin Village, a resident of Yae Hwat Village in Mahlaing Township of Mandalay Region, was forcibly abducted by a so-called PDF terrorist. On 27 June 2025 at around 6:30 AM, the so-called PDF terrorists released him in an apparent to spread fear among the educational community. The abducted teacher returned home, it is reported.

          Regarding the above incident, security personnel are continuing necessary operations in accordance with standard procedures to identify, apprehend and take action against the terrorists involved, it is reported.
