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 civil servants, administrative officials and 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 4 September, 2024 at 8:40 AM, a report stated that a man was shot dead in Shwe Nyaung Pin Ward, Myintkyina Township of Kachin State. When security personnel promptly arrived at the scene for further investigation, they discovered that the victim was U Thant Zin (45 years old), a resident of the ward. While the victim was on the street in the ward, three individuals from the KIA insurgent group and the so-called PDF terrorist group arrived and opened fire on him. As a result, the victim died on the spot, it is reported.
