A military convoy of 19 vehicles hit landmines near Pakhat village, in Tanintharyi Region’s Dawei Township, and at least 20 soldiers were reportedly killed, according to the Dawei People’s Defense Force (AdenHmu).

The four junta soldiers reportedly died on the spot in the attack.

In Dawei Township, during July, the junta forces advanced towards the areas where the People’s Defense Forces might be stationed, and thus the clashes were going on while their vehicles were frequently attacked with landmines.
