     In order to cause injuries to both peaceable civilians and administrative authorities who are striving to restore the rule of law, extreme terrorists provide financial assistance and instigate destructive activities, such as detonating explosive devices and remote blasting, against public roads, railways, government offices and houses.

     Since they are conducting such terrorist acts, on 12 August 2025 at 8:30 PM, a report stated that a woman with shrapnel injuries was admitted to Moekaung Township Public Hospital in Kachin State. When security personnel arrived at the hospital for further investigation, the victim was identified as Daw Khin Mar Kyi (48 years old), a resident of Nant Yar Village in Hpakant Township. The incident occurred while she was returning from a field near her village. She accidentally stepped on an explosive device planted near Ohn Ka Htaung Village by a combined group of KIA armed insurgents and so-called PDF terrorists, resulting in her injuries, it is reported.

     It has been reported that the security personnel are investigating the culprits of the acts of terrorism from the above incident to take effective action in accordance with the law.
