Държавните медии в Мианмар споделят, че военните са възвърнали контрола над стратегически град в Източна страна Кая от въоръжените сили на опозицията след съвсем две години

Възвръщането на Demoso в щата Кая - прочут още като Каренски - пристигна, защото военните ускориха интензивността през последните месеци, на място и с въздушни удари, с цел да придвижват региони, следени от съпротивата преди изборите, които дадоха обещание за 11 декември на 28 декември. of the capital Naypyitaw, has been a focal point for Myanmar’s civil war since the military took power from the elected government of Aung San Suu Kyi in February 2021.

The town had been under the control of the Karenni Nationalities Defense Force, or KNDF, and allied resistance forces in Kayah since the groups launched joint offensives against army bases in the state in November 2023.

A report in the state-run Myanma Alinn newspaper on Wednesday said Demoso, near the state’s capital of Loikow, was captured by the army on Tuesday after 16 days of operations to retake it.

The report said six bodies and five weapons were seized, adding that some members of the security forces were also killed. The newspaper published photos of soldiers who recaptured the town in front of the hospital, fire department and town hall.

The KNDF and other local resistance groups did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

In a statement posted Monday on Фейсбук, the KNDF accused the military of carrying out unlawful arrests of civilians, deliberate shootings and killings without cause and the use of civilians as human shields in attacking Demoso.

Kayah, the smallest of Myanmar’s seven states and dominated by the Karenni ethnic minority, has experienced intense conflict.

The provisional government formed by resistance groups in Kayah, including the KNDF, said Monday that at least 32 civilians were killed, five were wounded and several were missing after the military on Sunday bombed a hospital in the town of Mawchi, about 80 Километри (50 мили) на юг от Демозо.
