Junta’s frequent aircraft patrols creates worry among locals
May 29, 2024
HURFOM: Since March, 2024, the military junta has been patrolling with aircraft at least three times a week over Taung Pauk, Hline Ka Ne, Taung De and Win Ka Bar villages, Kyarinnseikyi Township, Karen State where the New Mon State Party (AD – Anti Military Dictatorship) is active.
“Three aircraft are patrolling over the village. They are over both Hline Ka Ne and Taung De. The village Administrators have warned us to be prepared to flee the village,” said a resident from Hline Ka Ne village.
The frequent aircraft patrols are stoking fear amongst villagers, who are now digging bomb shelters. Most villagers are packing their belongings in preparation to leave their homes.
“We’ve heard the sound of aircraft even at night. The military aircraft are patrolling even about ten times a day in Kyarinnseikyi Town,” said a local source.
The New Mon State Party (AD) has banned local villagers from celebrating festive events in Kyarinnseikyi Township and the local villagers are worrying that the military junta will target their villages with air assaults.
