The junta forces carried out three airstrikes on the
mountains near Kyauk Se Pyin village under Mrauk U township of Rakhine State at around 6 am on Friday.
"The junta soldiers conducted three airstrikes
using a jet fighter. I was quite shocked because the bombs were unexpectedly
dropped from the jet fighter. Fortunately, the bombs did not land in the
village but on mountains near the village. I cannot confirm if there were any
casualties as some people might have been in the mountains to cut wood and
bamboo," said Kyauk Se Pyin village administrator.
He informed that the villagers were in a state of panic and distress because of
the airstrikes.
A local resident stated that the junta's jet fighter
flew over Kyauktaw town.
"Since yesterday, a jet fighter has been circling
over Kyauktaw. This action is causing fear among the people. However, there has
been no actual battle. Ongoing presence of the jet fighter caused serious
concerns for the people," added the resident.
Additionally, on 15 April a jet fighter flew over
Kyauktaw causing panic and distress among the local residents.
