July 17, 2023
HURFOM: On June 25, 2023, there was an armed clash between the revolutionary forces and the military’s junta in Hnit Ka Yin village, Ye Township, Mon State.
The military attacked the village with artillery weapons and an air assault.
The junta arrested some villagers and roughly half of the village population fled from their homes.
“The junta is stationed in the village and is searching houses. They’ve also arrested villagers. Half of the village dare not stay at home and run away,” said a local.
Now the junta has threatened, if those villagers do not return to their home within five days, their empty houses will be sealed and seized after July 15th.
Hnit Ka Yin residents took shelter in monasteries in Hnit Ka Yin village, Mawlamyine, Mudon and Thanbyuzayat Towns and they have been unable to return to their houses.
“Military aircraft are flying above Hnit Ka Yin village every day. We hear the sound of military aircraft twice a day,” said a resident from a neighboring village.
