September 26, 2025
HURFOM: On September 19th, 2025, the junta’s army had battled with the joint resistance forces in Phar Lane area, Ye Township, Mon State.
After the battle, the army has been active around Ah Baw, Du Yar, Gu Ga Taw, Paline Thane, Hnee Hnuu, Thar Gram and An Dinn village. Moreover, the junta’s troops have been “hiding in ambush” in and nearby rubber plantation so that the local villagers and plantation workers are worrying about their security and safety.
“After the battle, the army didn’t allow us to go to the plantations for three days. They are still active in and out of the village as of today (September 25th). Don’t talk about going to plantation. We even dare not go outside the house,” said a Phar Lane resident.
The plantation workers reported HURFOM they had to stop going to their workplace as the junta’s army arrested plantation workers and villagers who went to the plantation.
“We have heard about the arrest so we’ve stopped going to our plantation for two days. Now, we’ve just started tapping of rubber plants so we can’t stop our work for a long time. Checking and interrogation aren’t a problem but we’re afraid of being arrested and extorted,” said a rubber plantation worker.
Villagers reported HURFOM the junta’s army arrested six local plantation workers after the September-19 clash and extorted their family members from 200,000 MMK to three million MMK for each release.
“The soldiers are “hiding in ambush” in the plantations,” said a plantation worker.
In early September, the administrator warned the plantation workers not to sleep at night in the plantation. Restrictions and military presence have been disrupted the plantation works and also creating problems and financial hardship for the plantation workers.
