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 23 April 2025 at 9:20 AM, a report stated that a man was shot dead in Zoke Thoke Village, Bilin Township of Mon State. When security personnel promptly arrived at the scene to conduct further investigation, the victim was identified as U Myint Soe (53 years old), a resident of the village. He was at the “Pyone Pan Ta Yar” tea shop when two so-called PDF terrorists arriving by motorcycle and opened fire on him. As a result, U Myint Soe died on the spot, it is reported.
Security personnel are persistently taking necessary measures to identify and apprehend the terrorists responsible for killing the innocent civilian in the aforementioned case, it is reported.
