One Government Servant Killed and Another Injured in Drone Bomb Attack by KNU and So-Called PDF Terrorists in Htantabin Township of Bago Region

      Terrorists are ruthlessly carrying out abductions, killings and armed attacks, using both heavy and small weapons, on wards and villages, as well as conducting drone strikes, all with the intent to harm civilians and spread fear.

     Since they are conducting such terrorist acts, on 11 January 2026, at 7:25 AM, a combined group of KNU and so-called PDF terrorists conducted a drone attack by dropping bombs on Aung Thu Kha Ward in Htantabin Township of Bago Region. One of the bombs exploded at the Township General Administration Department office in the ward. As a result, U Nay Tun Than (56 years old), an Assistant Director from the Taungoo District General Administration Department and U Nay Win (65 years old), a member of the District Electoral Commission, who were at the site at the time of the incident, sustained shrapnel injuries. The injured individuals were transported to Htantabin Township Public Hospital for medical treatment. Unfortunately, U Nay Tun Than succumbed to his injuries while receiving medical treatment, it is reported.

     According to the above-mentioned case, local residents are condemning and protesting against the indiscriminate firing of heavy weapons, small arms, improvised rockets and drone attacks by dropping bombs on wards and villages. In response, security personnel, in collaboration with local residents, are intensifying security measures to identify and apprehend the terrorists responsible for the incident, it is reported.
