People’s Militia Member shot Dead by So-Called PDF Terrorists in Yesagyo 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 innocent civilians 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 29 June 2025 at 9:30 AM, U Tun Aung (61 years old), a member of People Militia and resident of No.4 Ward in Yesagyo Township of Magway Region, was shot dead by a so-called PDF terrorist group. The incident occurred while U Tun Aung was travelling by motorcycle from the Veteran Office to the multi-purpose agricultural farm along the Yesagyo-Pakokku road. Upon reaching the farm, the so-called PDF terrorist group opened fire on him and then fled the scene. As a result, U Tun Aung 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.
