๐ฉ๐ฉ 1. Arakan Army Warns Bangladesh’s Interim Government That Rising Support for Militancy Within Its Military Could Threaten Border and ASEAN Regional Stability
October 12
The Arakan Army (AA) has warned that if more individuals within the Bangladesh Armed Forces begin supporting militant activities, it could endanger not only Bangladesh’s internal security but also the border regions and overall peace and stability within the ASEAN region.
In a statement addressed to the Bangladesh Interim Government, the AA issued the warning following an incident on October 11, when around ten armed members of extremist militant groups attacked three local residents in the Maungdaw area.
According to the AA, investigations revealed that weapons, ammunition, and military supplies seized from the ARSA (Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army) and RSO (Rohingya Solidarity Organization) militant groups were being sold and supplied by certain corrupt officers within the Bangladesh Border Guard (BGB). These officers were allegedly accepting financial bribes in exchange for selling or providing military-grade arms and equipment to the militant organizations that uphold extremist ideologies and cooperate with the junta’s military commission.
The AA further analyzed that the ongoing military operations of ARSA and RSO appear to be part of a mutually beneficial arrangement with the fascist and terrorist Myanmar Military Commission, carried out with the assistance of some corrupt BGB and military officers in Bangladesh. These individuals are suspected of aiding the groups in establishing coordinated, cross-border attacks.
Moreover, the AA stated that these corrupt BGB officers and soldiers not only support extremist ideologies but also provide medical treatment to injured ARSA members, supply them with food, rations, and ammunition, offer protective security cover, assist in aerial reconnaissance, and share radar-based military intelligence. Some even cooperate directly with ARSA and RSO forces during armed confrontations.
The AA emphasized that it had already informed the Bangladesh Interim Government on September 27 with evidence-backed and constructive criticism, urging prompt investigation and accountability measures against such misconduct.
The AA also cautioned that failure to take timely and decisive action could severely damage bilateral border stability, security, mutual trust, and intergovernmental relations. Furthermore, unchecked support for militancy within the Bangladesh military could strengthen extremist influence, ultimately posing a serious threat to Bangladesh’s national security, as well as the peace and stability of the broader border areas and the ASEAN region.
The AA described this warning as a constructive and preventive appeal, not an act of hostility.

๐ฉ๐ฉ 2. One Civilian Killed, Two Seriously Injured in Maungdaw Following Ambush by ARSA and RSO Extremist Militants
October 12
The Arakan Army (AA) reported that an ambush carried out by extremist militant groups ARSA and RSO resulted in the death of one civilian and serious injuries to two others in Maungdaw Township, near the Bangladesh–Arakan border.
According to the AA, the attack occurred at around noon on October 11, when about ten armed members of ARSA and RSO assaulted three local motorcycle delivery workers who were transporting daily consumer goods near the Leip Yakhwe junction, north of Maungdaw.
The ambush killed 22-year-old Ko Nyein Chan, while 23-year-old Ko Thaung Zin and 33-year-old Ko Naing Lin sustained severe injuries but managed to escape. The AA stated that its personnel later located the injured men and were able to provide timely medical treatment, saving their lives.
The three victims were ordinary civilians who earned their livelihoods by transporting essential goods between Nan Thar Taung and Kyain Chaung.
The AA also noted that it currently controls and secures all fascist military outposts in Buthidaung, Maungdaw, and other Arakan border regions, working to ensure public safety, healthcare, education, and social stability, while promoting harmony and coexistence among different ethnic communities under the leadership of the Arakan National Council.
At the same time, the AA reaffirmed its ongoing efforts to liberate the remaining three towns in Arakan State still under the control of the fascist junta, using both military and political strategies.
The AA’s statement further revealed that ARSA and RSO have constructed fortified camps along the Bangladesh–Arakan border and within Bangladesh territory, from which they launch sudden attacks on AA security posts, conduct cross-border raids, and target innocent civilians for killings, abductions, and violence.
The AA condemned these acts as terrorist operations that not only harm local communities but also serve the strategic interests of the Myanmar military junta, with indirect support from corrupt Bangladeshi military elements.

The Underground Guerrilla Force (UGF Okpo), operating under the Tharyarwaddy District Command in Oatpho Township, Bago Region, has issued a public warning that false flag operations are being conducted with the intent to damage the reputation and integrity of resistance units.
According to the statement, certain individuals have been extorting money and issuing threats under the name of Commander Ye Baw Dewa of UGF Okpo, fabricating operations meant to discredit the legitimate underground resistance network.
UGF Okpo clarified that it has never engaged in extortion, forced donations, or unauthorized public fundraising in the past and will not do so in the future. Captain De, the local military officer of the Underground Guerrilla Force – Oatpho, reaffirmed that such actions have no connection whatsoever to the authentic revolutionary forces.
The group emphasized that since the start of the revolutionary uprising, UGF Okpo has never used coercive means to collect funds, never accused innocent civilians of being informants, and never detained or executed civilians under false pretenses. The unit pledged to maintain its discipline and code of conduct with transparency and accountability.
UGF Okpo’s Commander Ye Baw Dewa assured the public that if any violations occur, citizens are encouraged to report directly to responsible officers, and effective action will be taken immediately against those involved.
The statement warned that these false flag operations are deliberately orchestrated by the terrorist military council to disrupt and discredit the integrity of the UGF Okpo and to undermine its code of conduct through manipulation and deception.

๐ฉ๐ฉ 4. Two Homes Destroyed as Junta Jet Fighters Bomb Mainlong Township in Northern Shan State
October 12
The Ta’ang National Liberation Army (TNLA) reported that two houses were destroyed when the terrorist junta’s jet fighters conducted another airstrike on Mainlong Township, located within TNLA Brigade 1 territory in northern Shan State.
According to TNLA’s statement, the attack took place around 1:30 p.m. on October 11, when a junta fighter jet dropped two 250-pound bombs on Taw San Ywar Ma village, damaging two homes and the monastery compound.
The two bombs reportedly exploded — one inside Taw San Ywar Ma village and another on Lwal Yint Hill, just outside the village.
The TNLA also recalled that on October 10, the junta’s aircraft similarly dropped two 250-pound bombs near Aung Myae village in Moemeik Township, followed by six rounds of rocket artillery fire, according to verified military records from the PSLF/TNLA Information and Communications Department.
The TNLA and allied revolutionary forces have urged civilians to remain vigilant, avoid junta air assault zones, and follow community-based air defense safety protocols, as the terrorist junta continues targeting civilians with indiscriminate aerial attacks.
These reports were submitted by Radio NUG correspondent Ko Khant.
