  • Travelers Abducted Along with Bus by So-Called PDF Terrorist Group in Chaung-U Township of Sagaing Region

   Terrorist groups have been engaging in battles, carrying out attacks using heavy weapons, drones to drop bombs and improvised explosive devices across towns and villages in various states and regions. Moreover, they are committing inhumane acts of terror and criminal activities-including abducting and extorting money from local civilians and also election commission members, as well as killings.

   Since they are conducting such terrorist acts, on 19 November 2025, at 1:10 PM, a bus driven by U Nyi Nyi Htway (55 years old) and vehicle conductor U Soe Win Aung (30 years old), was travelling with 22 passengers from Monywa Town to Mandalay City along the Monywa - Chaung-U – Mandalay Road. When the bus reached an area between Nat Yae Kan Village in Chaung-U Township and Gway Pin Taw Village in Myinmu Township, a so-called PDF terrorist group forced the bus to stop and abducted all the individuals along with the bus, it is reported. 

   Regarding the above incident, security personnel are continuing necessary operations in accordance with standard procedures to identify, apprehend and take action against the terrorists involved, it is reported.
