Rebel fighters led by the National Liberation Army (KNLA) have captured a key military base in Myanmar’s Mon State, killing several junta soldiers in the process. The People’s Defense Force (PDF), Bamar People’s Liberation Army (BPLA), and Force for Federal Democracy (FFD) participated in the operation. The capture followed intense fighting over a month, despite challenges from junta airstrikes. 29 junta soldiers were arrested, and one KNLA fighter and one FFD soldier lost their lives during the battle.
