State media said troops seized 11 resistance bases and captured weapons, vehicles, drones and computers in a six-day operation.
- On Tuesday, the Myanmar military seized a key resistance command headquarters and 10 other bases in the south, state media reported, marking a new gain in the civil war.
- The military-backed government took office in April following controversial elections and has stepped up activity against the PDF and ethnic militias fighting for greater autonomy.
- State-Run Myanma Alinn reported the six-day operation occurred on the border between Mon and Bago, 75 miles northeast of Yangon, yielding small arms, ammunition, vehicles, drones, and computers.
- Neither the National Unity Government nor the Karen National Union immediately responded to requests for comment; independent confirmation remains impossible as the military restricts journalist access to the area.
- Military officials stated they will continue security operations across southern Kayin and Mon states as the conflict persists since the 2021 military takeover that ousted elected leader Aung San Suu Kyi.
