HURFOM: On May 9th, 2024, an unknown armed group killed a medic from Three Pagoda Pass Town, Karen State and burnt down his house, locals reported HURFOM.
Six members from unknown armed groups reached the house of the 60-year-old medic in Ward #3, Three Pagoda Pass using two motorbikes. They shot and killed the man at his house and then burnt down the house.

The victim has just moved to Three Pagoda Pass very recently and as of today, no one knows which armed group is responsible for the killing.
