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 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 15 February at 5:15 PM, a report stated that a woman lost her life due to being stabbed with a knife and struck with a stick in Mayoekone Village of Myingyan Township, Mandalay Region. Security personnel promptly arrived at the scene and conducted an inspection. During the investigation, it was found that Daw Wai Wai Khine (30 years old), who lived in this village, had been assaulted while farming in a field located five furlongs west of the village. At that time, two so-called PDF terrorists arrived by a motorcycle and proceeded to attack her using a knife and a stick, inflicting fatal wounds, before fleeing. As a result, Daw Wai Wai Khine was dead from injuries, it is reported.
Similarly, at 5:50 PM, a report stated that a man shot dead in Myataung Village of Natogyi Township. Security personnel promptly arrived at the scene and conducted an inspection. During the investigation, it was found that U Aung Lwin (39 years old), who lived in Pyinsi Village of Natogyi Township, was arriving at the house of U Kyaw Than who lives in Myataung Village with a six wheeled vehicle (License Plate No. MDY-20 5J/XXXX) to load charcoals. At that time, four so-called PDF terrorists arrived by two motorcycles and detained him by tying his hands behind his back with a rope. Later, when the terrorists reached the entrance of Myataung Village, they opened fire on him. As a result, U Aung Lwin died from gunshot injuries, it is reported.
