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 15 December 2024 at 11:05 AM, a report stated that an explosion occurred near Zee Pyar Village in Pauk Township of Magway Region. When security personnel promptly arrived at the scene for further investigation, it was discovered that U Thein Maung (60 years old), a resident of the village was heading to a banana plantation near the village.

As a result, U Thein Maung sustained shrapnel injuries. He is currently receiving medical treatment at a clinic in the village, it is reported.
