HURFOM: On January 30th, 2024, the joint People’s Defense Forces battled with the military junta in Long Lone Town, Tenasserim Division. Three civilians including 10-year-old child sustained injuries, and three houses were damaged.

“A 58-year-old man was making a broom at the stable behind his house. The artillery shell dropped and exploded near the stable. The artillery debris penetrated his armpit and left him with serious injury. I’ve learnt that other two residents were also injured,” said a Long Lone resident.
Artillery shells also exploded in Tha Byar and Arm Pone villages and damaged three houses.
