On July 5, Chin Revolutionary Joint Forces launched an offensive and seized a junta military outpost stationed in Mualpi village, Tedim Township, Chin State. According to Chin news sources, resistance forces seized over 30 small arms, several heavy weapons, and a stockpile of ammunition, bullets, and mines.
The outpost had been established as a temporary base since May 18, as part of a military operation advancing from Kale, Sagaing Region, toward northern Chin State, particularly Falam and Tedim Townships. Due to strong resistance from Chin forces, the junta troops had been halted in Mualpi.
By late June, Chin joint forces had already overrun parts of junta positions near Mualpi. On July 5, they were able to completely seize control of the village, reports say.
During the battle, many junta soldiers were killed or injured, while others retreated toward Kale Town. Several junta troops were also captured as prisoners of war (POWs).
However, the Chin National Army (CNA) confirmed that four of its fighters fell in the battle.
Based on statements from the captured junta soldiers, the offensive force operating in northern Chin includes six battalions with around 800 personnel in total, with a mission to recapture Falam.
Furthermore, reports indicate that the military junta is also preparing for a new offensive toward Mindat in southern Chin by transporting large numbers of troops from Pakokku, Magway Region, using over 120 military trucks.

On July 5 at 6:37 p.m., USBA forces ambushed a joint patrol unit of junta troops and police, which had departed from the Baw Ye police station near Tazeekauk village.
The next morning, on July 6 at 8:40 a.m., another joint patrol unit from the Linkael police station near Lakkhopin village was also ambushed.
As a result of these attacks, junta personnel reportedly suffered significant casualties, with bodies and the wounded transported to Thayet Hospital for emergency medical treatment. However, the exact number of casualties is still being verified.
The USBA confirmed it carried out these attacks and reported that none of their own members were harmed. Due to the possibility of continued escalations, civilians have been urged to remain vigilant and exercise caution when moving through affected areas.
