Innocent Civilians Recklessly Assassinated by Terrorists

     In some townships across States and Regions, 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 7 November, 2024 at 4:00 PM, a report stated that a man with gunshot injuries had arrived at Mandalay Public Hospital in Hay Mar Za La Ward, Chanayetharzan Township of Mandalay Region. When security personnel promptly arrived at the Hospital for further investigation, it was discovered that the victim was U Shein (77 years old) a resident of Thar Si Village in Ngazun Township. The victim had been walking in front of his house when a so-called PDF terrorist group opened fire on him before fleeing, resulting in his injuries, it is reported.
     Similarly, at 5:05 PM, a report stated that a man was shot dead in Kamar Paung Village, Thaton Township of Mon State. When security personnel promptly arrived at the scene for further investigation, it was discovered that the victim was U Soe Hlaing (53 years old) a resident of the village. The victim was spraying pesticides on a farm near the village when a so-called PDF terrorist group opened fire on him before fleeing. As a result, the victim died on the spot, it is reported.
     Security parsonnel are persistently taking necessary measures to identify and apprehend the terrorists responsible for the killings and assassinations of innocent civilians in the aforementioned case, it is reported.
