Hello everyone. Welcome to today’s m.CDM Domestic News.
Today’s headlines:
Special Military Region says the airstrike that killed five resistance members, including a CDM sergeant, was based on information obtained during interrogations of captured fighters.
PRF says the military’s claims about the organization are intended to undermine public trust and cut off funding channels for the resistance.
Military forces reportedly conduct ground operations and airstrikes in flood-hit Dawei; the military-appointed regional chief minister says security concerns have made relief operations difficult.
The British government strongly condemns the Myanmar military’s airstrike that killed civilians in Kyauktaw.
1. Special Military Region Says Captured Fighters’ Interrogations Led to Deadly Airstrike
The Special Military Region says an airstrike on one of its communications bases that killed five resistance members, including CDM Sergeant Nay Win Aung, was carried out using information obtained during interrogations of captured resistance fighters.
At around 11 a.m. on September 24, two MiG-29 fighter jets that reportedly took off from the Naypyidaw airbase dropped four bombs on the Special Military Region communications base. Two of the bombs reportedly struck the target.
Five people were killed: CDM Sergeant Nay Win Aung, two members of the regional command’s security force and two communications personnel. Three others were injured.
According to the Special Military Region, an investigation found that the military had obtained the location through information extracted from captured resistance members during interrogation and subsequently used that information to conduct the airstrike.
The organization said it issued the clarification because military authorities and their supporters were spreading false information intended to create divisions among resistance groups.
Military supporters had circulated claims online alleging that CDM personnel had provided inside information that enabled the precise strike.
Nay Win Aung had joined the Civil Disobedience Movement in 2021 while serving at the Pathein Air Force radar unit and later provided air-defense training to resistance forces, according to the report.
2. PRF Rejects Military Claims About Its Members and Support Network
The People’s Revolution Supply Force (PRF) says military claims about the organization are intended to undermine public confidence and disrupt funding channels supporting the resistance.
The PRF, which operates under the National Unity Government’s Ministry of Defense, issued its response on the night of September 29.
Military-controlled media had claimed on September 28 that authorities had identified information relating to more than 2,700 PRF members who allegedly provided financial support to the CRPH, NUG and PDF, and that 21 people had been arrested.
The PRF rejected the claim as false.
According to the organization, it has never collected or stored identifying information such as members’ real names, addresses or photographs. It said registration requires only an alias and an email account, making it impossible to identify members through the PRF system itself.
The PRF therefore said the military’s claim that it had obtained information on more than 2,700 supporters was baseless.
It alleged that the military had instead combined information obtained from earlier arrests—including records associated with a Wave Money agent and data obtained from the phones of detainees—and then presented those individuals as members of the PRF network.
The PRF expressed sympathy for people arrested after supporting the resistance and said it would continue working toward justice.
It also alleged that the military’s objective was to undermine public trust in the PRF, cut off resistance funding channels and bring additional charges against people already in detention.
The PRF further accused Wave Money and its parent company, Yoma Bank, of providing customers’ financial information to military authorities and condemned them for what it characterized as assistance to the military.
The organization said it is strengthening security procedures and advised people inside Myanmar to exercise particular caution regarding their phones and money-transfer records. It also called on Myanmar citizens abroad to increase support for those inside the country.
3. NUG and Chin People’s Army Condemn Kyauktaw Airstrike
The National Unity Government (NUG) and the Chin People’s Union/Chin People’s Army (CUP/CPA) have condemned the military airstrike on Kyauktaw, Rakhine State, which reportedly killed at least 50 civilians.
They also said they would cooperate with the Arakan Army and other allies in taking action against the military.
The attack took place on the afternoon of September 28 near India Market and the Kissapanadi Bridge in Kyauktaw, areas frequented by civilians.
According to the statements cited in the report, at least 50 civilians—including children and pregnant women—were killed, while nearly 60 others were injured.
Market stalls, cars, three-wheeled vehicles, motorcycles and tractors were also reportedly destroyed by fire.
The NUG accused the military of deliberately attacking civilian targets to intimidate the population and said those who ordered or participated in alleged war crimes would be documented and pursued through accountability mechanisms.
The CUP/CPA also expressed condolences to the victims and said it would continue cooperating with the Arakan Army against the military.
The NUG additionally called on the international community and United Nations to restrict supplies of aviation fuel, weapons and ammunition to the military and urged sanctions against state-owned banks.
4. KIA-Led Forces Reportedly Capture Two SNA Camps in Hpakant
The Kachin Independence Army (KIA) and allied forces reportedly captured two camps belonging to the military-aligned Shanni Nationalities Army (SNA) in the Sezin area of Hpakant Township, Kachin State.
Local military sources said the two SNA positions near Taung Yar Kone village were captured on the morning of September 29.
Military observers said the development could lead to further fighting between KIA-led forces and SNA and Shanni militia forces.
Some weapons and ammunition were reportedly seized during the operation.
A member of the NPDF reportedly stepped on a landmine during the fighting and lost one leg.
SNA and Shanni militia forces operate in parts of Hpakant and Mohnyin townships in Kachin State, as well as Homalin and Banmauk townships in Sagaing Region and other areas near the Kachin-Sagaing border.
According to the report, they have cooperated with the military in fighting resistance forces.
Fighting involving KIA-led forces and the military has also intensified during September around Bhamo, Shwegu, Mohnyin, Indawgyi and near Momeik in northern Shan State, with KIA-led forces reportedly capturing several military positions.
5. Military Operations and Airstrikes Reported in Flood-Hit Dawei
Military forces have reportedly continued ground operations and airstrikes in the Dawei area of Tanintharyi Region while communities are struggling with severe flooding and landslides.
At around 3 p.m. on September 30, fighter jets reportedly bombed the area around Ye Waing village in the Pakari village tract of Dawei Township, despite no fighting being reported there at the time.
No casualties were reported, but residents reportedly fled because they feared further airstrikes.
In Launglon Township, military columns were also reportedly deployed in areas affected by flooding.
The report alleges that troops were providing security for senior officials visiting flood-affected areas and that their presence caused entire villages to flee again.
Around 100 military personnel reportedly entered Kyauk Sin village in Yebyu Township on September 28 and subsequently advanced into Thit To Htaunt village on September 29, with artillery fire also reported.
Residents of Dawei said military personnel detained a young man in Kyet Sar Pyin Ward on September 28, allegedly to use him as a porter.
Meanwhile, military-appointed Tanintharyi Region Chief Minister Zaw Naing Oo said security conditions had made it difficult to conduct emergency relief operations.
He made the remarks during a September 28 meeting at the regional government office in Dawei.
Zaw Naing Oo said authorities were coordinating supplies of drinking water, food and medicines and were arranging heavy machinery to assist in areas affected by landslides.
According to the Dawei Nationalities Liberation Force, 32 deaths have been confirmed across the Dawei area, while dozens remain missing. Around 300 buildings and 50 fishing boats have reportedly been damaged or destroyed.
The report says NUG-affiliated groups, resistance organizations and civil-society relief groups have been conducting search-and-rescue operations on the ground.
Residents have also been warned not to return home too quickly because of continuing landslide risks and the possibility that floodwaters may have displaced landmines and unexploded military ordnance.
6. Resistance Forces Shell Military Position in Hpapun; Checkpoint Attacked in Paungde
The Federal Revolution Force (FRF) says resistance forces fired 45 mortar rounds at a military strategic position in Hpapun, Karen State.
According to the FRF, the September 27 attack was jointly carried out by the KNDO, KNLA and the FRF’s mortar-production unit.
The groups said 45 rounds of 60-mm mortar fire struck buildings housing officers and military barracks.
Separately, fighting was reported around Kamamaung in Hpapun Township, where resistance sources claimed seven military personnel were killed and weapons and ammunition were seized.
In Paungde Township, Bago Region, resistance forces also attacked a military checkpoint, according to Pyay District Battalion 1.
The group said the checkpoint, staffed by around 50 personnel, was attacked on the morning of September 23.
It claimed one military member was killed and five were seriously injured.
According to the report, the body of the soldier who was killed was buried nearby at around 8 p.m. rather than being returned to his unit.
7. Civilian Killed in Kyaikto; Homes Reportedly Burned in Kanpetlet
A civilian was reportedly killed and two others injured in military airstrikes and artillery attacks on villages in Kyaikto Township, Mon State, according to the Karen National Union.
The attacks reportedly targeted villages in KNU-controlled territory.
On September 24 and 25, fighter jets reportedly bombed areas near Zee Kone village and Kaw Kat village, while artillery was also fired into the area.
Homes, shops and vehicles were reportedly damaged.
On September 26, further airstrikes and artillery fire from Artillery Battalion 310 and Light Infantry Division 44 reportedly killed 58-year-old Daw Ma El Thi Khaing, who had traveled from Shwegyin for work.
Two other civilians, U Wai Yan and Ma Sandar Myint Mon, were reportedly injured.
Meanwhile, a military column has reportedly entered territory controlled by the CUP/CPA in Kanpetlet Township, Chin State.
The force of around 200 troops reportedly left Laungshay in Magway Region on September 21 and reached Masa Twi village in Kanpetlet Township nine days later, on September 29.
The report alleges that military forces bombed villages along the Magway-Chin border and burned civilian homes during their advance.
Residents of Masa Twi and surrounding communities have reportedly fled their villages.
No fighting had yet been reported at the time of the report, although local sources said tensions remained high.
8. Myanmar Ambassador Raises Kyauktaw Airstrike at UN Meeting
Myanmar’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Ambassador Kyaw Moe Tun, raised the military’s deadly airstrike on Kyauktaw during a UN high-level meeting.
He addressed the September 29 meeting commemorating and promoting the International Day for the Total Elimination of Nuclear Weapons.
Kyaw Moe Tun said the Kyauktaw airstrike had killed at least 50 civilians, including women and children, and injured many others.
He argued that an armed force that disregards civilian lives could not be trusted to use civilian or dual-use technology solely for peaceful purposes.
The ambassador therefore expressed concern over nuclear-energy cooperation between Myanmar’s military authorities and a nuclear-armed country.
He argued that international assistance or cooperation involving nuclear energy—even for peaceful purposes—should resume only after peace and stability have been restored in Myanmar, democracy has genuinely been re-established and the military is placed under civilian control.
Kyaw Moe Tun also called on UN member states to stop supplying the military with weapons, ammunition, aviation fuel and dual-use goods.
9. UN Human Rights Chief Condemns Kyauktaw Airstrike
UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Türk has strongly condemned the military airstrike on Kyauktaw that reportedly killed at least 50 civilians.
The strike hit a busy market containing more than 200 shops on the afternoon of September 28.
According to the report, children, women, vendors, shoppers and transport workers were among those killed.
Members of several communities—including Rakhine, Rohingya, Hindu and Daingnet communities—were reportedly affected.
Türk said the attack illustrated the alarming conditions faced by civilians throughout Myanmar, particularly in Rakhine State.
As of the night of September 29, ground reports cited in the article put the death toll at 50, with nearly 60 people injured and 22 reportedly in critical condition.
The UN human rights chief also criticized the timing of Malaysia’s plan to begin repatriating approximately 5,000 Myanmar nationals only hours after the deadly Kyauktaw attack.
10. UK Government Strongly Condemns Kyauktaw Airstrike
The United Kingdom government has strongly condemned the Myanmar military’s airstrike on civilians in Kyauktaw, describing it as an appalling attack.
The UK issued its statement on September 29 following the September 28 bombing.
Baroness Winterton, the UK Minister for the Indo-Pacific, said the British government was deeply shocked by the loss of life caused by the airstrike on a market in Kyauktaw.
She said attacks targeting civilians were unacceptable and reiterated that the United Kingdom stands with the people of Myanmar.
The UK called for civilians to be protected and for airstrikes to stop.
According to the Arakan Army, the Kyauktaw attack had killed 50 people and injured nearly 60, with 22 of the injured reportedly still in critical condition.
