       With the aims to create an uneducated society following the loss of children’s rights to education, the CRPH, NUG and their subordinates PDF terrorist groups, which the Government has declared as terrorist organizations, are conducting various kinds of destructive activities across the country such as intimidation and coercion against students, teachers and parents; abductions and killings of students, teachers and parents; arson and bombing attacks on schools. In addition to the acts aforesaid, so-called PDF terrorists, with destructive emotions, are making acts of vandalism against the government’s efforts on education sector development such as putting textbooks and teaching/learning aids to the torch; and taking those forcibly.
       Since they are committing such terrorist acts, on 20 August at 03:30 PM, while 36 teachers were conducting classes for 343 students at the Basic Education High School in Myoma Ward of Depayin Township in Sagaing Region, so-called PDF terrorists wantonly attacked with a drop bomb using a drone. The bomb hit and exploded at the red silk cotton tree located close to the “Pyinnyar Yadanar” school building. As a result of the explosion, Mg Aye Min Khant Kyaw, 15 years old, who was attending a Grade 10 school room on the upper floor of the “Pyinnyar Yadanar” school building, sustained an injury from bomb shrapnel. Teachers promptly provided him with the necessary medical treatment and care, it is reported.
       Security personnel are doing required investigations to find and apprehend those terrorists involved in the aforementioned threats and to take legal action against them. The public was urged to oppose the NUG and PDF terrorist groups who committed nefarious acts and participate in protecting security for the future of children by providing the information about terrorists’ movements to concerned administration bodies, it is reported.
