TATMADAW columns are conducting security operations to regain control of and reopen the strategically important Kalay-Tamu route for Myanmar-India border trade.
Since 7 June, separate columns advancing from Kalay and Tamu have recaptured towns and villages along the route, including new Htinzin Village and old Htinzin Village, which had been used as temporary bases by terrorist groups.
Clashes occurred during the operations, with weapons, ammunition and related equipment seized from the groups, who reportedly withdrew after suffering casualties.
Security operations are continuing, alongside efforts to repair and rebuild damaged homes, buildings, roads and bridges in cooperation with relevant authorities. — MNA/MKKS
