State, said local residents, adding that death threats were conveyed
through the local administrators.
"On 31 May, local administrators conveyed to us
that the junta soldiers will kill anyone leaving their houses after 9 pm,"
stated a Maungdaw resident.
The junta forces are currently stationed at Wi Ma La
post primary school in Myo Ma (north) ward and the post primary school in
Myo Ma (west) ward. Various religious buildings in Maungdaw town are also used
by the junta soldiers to monitor the residents.
"They are stationed in several locations
across Maungdaw town, including Dat village school, Myo Ma markets, etc. They
are monitoring the pedestrians and individuals at tea shops, " added the
resident.
In Maungdaw, the border guard personnel were removed
from the locations, where the fleeing personnel were stationed. Instead, the

there.
