It was learned from the local defense force in Sagaing that two jet fighters of the SAC came and bombed Ywa Tharyar village in Indaw Township, upper Sagaing region today.
“It has been fighting at Indaw today at around 6:00 a.m. At around 11:20 a.m., they (SAC) came up with jet fighters from the side of Myitkyina and bombarded,” a comrade from the local defense force in Sagaing told MPA.
At about 11:20 a.m. today, the SAC bombarded Ywa Tharyar Village between Bamauk Town and Indaw Township for about 8 minutes and then returned. He added that the damage caused by the attack was unknown yet.
A clash between the People’s Defense Forces and the SAC troops began at about 6:00 a.m. in Ywa Tharyar village, and in the afternoon, the SAC came to attack with jet fighters.
“Bombing the Indaw with jet fighters is another war crime committed by the Military. In addition to this issue, the Military used fighter jets and weapons that were not allowed by the international community in airstrikes that killed hundreds of people in Pazigyi in the past. We need to create a situation where action can be taken against them. I’d like to demand that international organizations arrest and prosecute the Military group,” Ko Myat Kyaw, a political analyst, told MPA.
Kachin Independence Organization (KIO/KIA) personnel, Kachin artists, some businessmen, and civilians were killed because the SAC bombed A Nang Pa village in Hpakant Township, Kachin State on the night of October 23, 2022.
In addition, on September 16, the SAC attacked Let Yet Kone village in Sagaing Region, Depeyin Township by air, killing 12 people, including 7 children attending school in the village.
Last April 11, the SAC attacked Pazigyi village in Kanbalu township using powerful bombs by air, killing more than a hundred of people.
