Innocent Civilian Recklessly Assassinated by So-called PDF Terrorists

    In some townships across States and Regions, so-called PDF 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 21 September, 2024 at 9:30 AM, a report stated that a woman had been shot and stabbed to death near Nwar Ban Gyi Village in Ywarngan Township of Southern Shan State. When security personnel promptly arrived at the scene for further investigation, it was discovered that the victim was Daw Khin Mar Wai (aka)Daw Hmine Wai (47 years old), a resident of the village. While the victim was at the “Myin Ka Pat” upland field approximately one mile southwest of the village, six so-called PDF terrorists arrived, opened fire and stabbed her with a knife. As a result, the victim died on the spot, it is reported.
    Security personnel are persistently taking necessary measures to identify and apprehend the terrorists responsible for the killing and assassination of innocent civilian in the aforementioned case, it is reported.
