A Man Shot Dead by So-Called PDF Terrorists in Nattalin Township of Bago Region

     In some townships across States and Regions, terrorists motivated by a radical ideology that views “anyone with differing views is an enemy” are conducting violent assaults and assassinations. Their targets are innocent civilians who do not support their terrorist acts. Using firearms and knives, these terrorists are committing brutal assassinations after accusing them of “spies, informants or decoys”. This strategy is intended to instill fear among peaceable civilians and create a pervasive sense of dread within these communities.
     Since they are committing such terrorist acts, on 8 May 2025 at 12:45 PM, U Saw Naing (47 years old), a member of the Public Security and Counter-Terrorism Team and a resident of Kyun Lay Pin Village in Nattalin Township of Bago Region, was at his house when nine so-called PDF terrorists arriving by three motorcycles and opened fire on him. As a result, U Saw Naing died on the spot, it is reported.
     Security personnel are persistently taking necessary measures to identify and apprehend the terrorists responsible for the aforementioned case, it is reported.
