In order to cause injuries to both peaceable civilians and administrative authorities who are striving to restore the rule of law, extreme terrorists provide financial assistance and instigate destructive activities, such as detonating explosive devices and remote blasting, against public roads, railways, government offices and houses.
Since they are conducting such terrorist acts, on 22 April 2026 at 10:30 AM, a report stated that a woman with shrapnel injuries was admitted to Sin Phyu Kyun Station Hospital in Magway Region. When security personnel arrived at the hospital to conduct further investigation, the victim was identified as Daw Myint Myint Wai (55 years old), a resident of Si Zwal Village in Salin Township. According to the investigation, at 8:40 AM, on the same day, while the victim was on her way to an area about one furlong southwest of the village, she stepped on an improvised explosive device planted by so-called PDF terrorists, causing it to explode, and resulting in her injuries, it is reported.
Similarly, at 2:00 PM, on the same day, Mg Aye Chan Aung (24 years old), a resident of Za Yet Kwin Village in Thabeikkyin Township of Mandalay Region, was heading for an area to collect scrap iron. When he reached an area near Late Khya Village in Thabeikkyin Township, he stepped on an improvised explosive device planted by so-called PDF terrorists, causing it to explode. As a result, he sustained shrapnel injuries and was transported to No. (10) Military Hospital (100-bedded) for medical treatment, it is reported.
