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 5 July 2025 at 3:45 PM, a report stated that a woman was shot dead in Hta Naung Pin Su (South) Village, Myingyan Township of Mandalay Region. When security personnel arrived at the scene for further investigation, they discovered that the victim was identified as Ma Ei Khine Tin (22 years old), a resident of the village. The incident occurred when the victim was at her house, approximately three so-called PDF terrorists arriving by two motorcycles and opened fire on her, accusing her of being a “decoy”. As a result, she died on the spot, it is reported.
Security personnel are persistently taking necessary measures to identify and apprehend the terrorists responsible for the aforementioned case, it is reported.
