Village Administrator Shot Dead by So-Called PDF Terrorist Group in Aunglan Township of Magway Region

     In some townships across States and Regions, terrorists motivated by a radical ideology that views “anyone with differing views is an enemy” are conducting violent assaults and assassinations. Their targets are administrative officials who do not support their terrorist acts. Using firearms and knives, these terrorists are committing brutal assassinations after accusing them of “spies, informants or decoys”. This strategy is intended to instill fear among peaceable civilians and create a pervasive sense of dread within these communities.

     Since they are committing such terrorist acts, on 16 August 2025 at 1:00 PM, a report stated that a man was shot dead near Byan De Village in Aunglan Township of Magway Region. When security personnel conducted further investigation, the victim was identified as the Village Administrator U Kyaw Myint Sein (54 years old), a resident of the village. The incident occurred while the victim was at his house, three so-called PDF terrorists arrived and abducted him, accusing him of being a “Decoy”. The terrorists then took him to a field approximately three furlongs southeast of the village, where they opened fire on him. As a result, U Kyaw Myint Sein died on the spot, it is reported.

     Security personnel are persistently taking necessary measures to identify and apprehend the terrorists responsible for the aforementioned case, it is reported.
