HURFOM: According to local reports and data collected by HURFOM, innocent civilians have been injured and killed, due to military battles for three days in a row.

From April 1st  to the 3rd, 2023 armed clashes have taken place along the Ye – Thanbyuzayat Highway Road between Aung Thar Yar and Ka Nin Ka Maw village, Ye Township, in Mon State.

On April 1, a 40-year-old couple from Lamine Town traveled to  Mawlamyine in their car for a medical appointment. They were shot at and both were injured.

On April 2, a 47-year-old man from Gone Paw Yaw Thit village was shot 13 times and died.

On April 3, another man was found shot and dead in a rubber plantation near the roadway.

“On April 3, another dead body was found at the same place where a dead body was found on April 2. He was from Maw Ka Nin Yaw Thit village. We sent his body to the mortuary of the Lamine General Hospital,” said a member of the Lamine Social and Rescue Team.

Since martial law was imposed in Ye Township, the military junta has increased its arrests and killings of innocent civilians.  The number of innocent civilians, including plantation workers injured due to landmine explosions and armed clashes, has also sharply increased.
