In some townships across States and Regions, armed terrorists driven by a radicalized ideology that considers 'Anyone with differing views is an enemy' are carrying out violent assaults and assassinations. Their targets include civil services, administrative officials and innocent civilians who do not endorse their terrorist activities. Using firearms and knives, they accuse these individuals of being 'spies', 'informants' or 'decoys' to instill fear among peace-seeking civilians, causing a pervasive sense of dread within these communities.
Since they are conducting such terrorist acts, on 2 April at 11:30 AM, Ma Thida Myint (32 years old), who lived in Htanpinkan Village, Taungtha Township, Mandalay Region, was at her home when four so-called PDF terrorists arrived on two motorcycles and detained her. Later, when they reached a field located between Pyathatgyi Village and Ngwethaung Village in Taungtha Township, they attacked Ma Thida Myint with knives, stabbing and slashing her. As a result, Ma Thida Myint died from knife wounds, it is reported.
Similarly, at 2:15 PM, a report stated that a man was killed by gunfire in Tetwun (North) Village, Natmauk Township, Magway Region. Security personnel promptly arrived at the scene and conducted an inspection. During the investigation, it was found that U Hla Paw (aka) Thaingmyo (51 years old), a branch village leader, who lived in the village, was in U Thar Aye’s shop- U Thar Aye being another village resident, when four so-called PDF terrorists arrived on two motorcycles and opened fire on him. As a result, U Hla Paw (aka) Thaingmyo died from gunshot wounds, it is reported.
