Armed conflict forces residents in Pa Ya and nearby villages to flee

HURFOM: In the morning of June 15^th, 2025, joint resistance groups launched simultaneous attacks on four military bases in “Shwe Moe Nyo” Pagoda and nearby areas in Pa Ya village, Kan Bauk region, Yebyu Township, Tenasserim Division.

Just prior to the attacks, junta’s regiments had advanced into the area and launched artillery attacks forcing residents in Pa Ya and nearby villages to flee their homes.

“We were frightened by gunfire in the early morning. The junta’s “Shwe Moe Nyo” gate in the center of the village and three other nearby gates were attacked simultaneously. There are six other junta’s gates in the village. The junta suffered casualty and injury during the clash,” said a Pa Ya villager.

On June 16^th, the Mawrawaddy Navy Unit launched artillery attacks on Pa Ya village and the Zar D village tract.  The junta sent six military trucks to reinforce its troops in Pa Ya village.

The junta has since cut off the telecommunication network in Pa Ya and nearby villages.

“I want to know when this conflict ends. It isn’t okay to flee home in the rainy season. It isn’t easy to find a proper shelter. Now, we’re taking shelter in a nearby monastery,” said a Pa Ya resident.

The armed clash and military advance have also forced schools in Pa Ya village to close.
