“Currently, there is almost no damage. It is known that the military dogs (SAC troops) column is marching from the ground around the bombing site,” said a member of the Tanintharyi Region PDF (Pa-Ka-Pha).
After the SAC bombarded the Na Bu Lel area, because the soldiers of the SAC entered to attack, it was learned that there was a battle with the People’s Defense Forces.
