In order to cause injuries to both peaceable civilians and administrative authorities who are striving to restore the rule of law, extreme terrorists provide financial assistance and instigate destructive activities, such as detonating explosive devices and remote blasting, against public roads, railways, government offices and houses.
Since they are conducting such terrorist acts, on 20 November 2024, at 4:20 PM, a report stated that an explosion occurred near Lay Thar Kone Village in Salin Township of Magway Region. When security personnel promptly arrived at the scene for further investigation, it was discovered that U Myint Aung (52 years old), a resident of the village, was walking from Lay Thar Kone Village to Taung Phi Lar Village along the Comutable Road connecting the two villages. When he reached a location approximately one mile and two furlongs north of Lay Thar Kone Village, he stepped on an explosive device planted by a so-called PDF terrorist group, causing it to explode. As a result, U Myint Aung sustained shrapnel injuries and was transported to Magway Town Public Hospital for medical treatment, it is reported.
It has been reported that the security personnel are investigating the culprits of the acts of terrorism from the above incident to take effective action in accordance with the law.
