08 April 2026      The terrorist groups, the Committee Representing Pyidaungsu Hluttaw (CRPH) and the National Unity Government (NUG), with the aim of nationwide destruction, have formed the terrorist groups known as the so-called PDFs.

Recapturing Thaphanseik Dam: Tatmadaw columns regained control of Thaphanseik Dam
The government has been continuously making multifaceted efforts to ensure national peace, stability, and development, including building roads and bridges, excavating dams and embankments, and providing electricity to areas without access to power. However, the terrorist insurgents masquerading as the NUG's proxy PDF, prioritizing their own self-interests and aiming to halt government administrative mechanisms, have been recklessly planting mines, bombing and destroying government buildings, roads, bridges, and irrigation dams and embankments, as well as burning down the homes of local civilians.In this context, the terrorist insurgents claiming to be PDF have temporarily taken control of the Thaphanseik Dam and surrounding villages in Kyan Hla Township, Sagaing Region, and have been engaging in destructive activities through various means.Consequently, military columns systematically carried out necessary regroupings to recover the Thaphanseik Dam and surrounding villages with minimal damage. By dividing into columns and launching carefully controlled offensive operations with restrictions to prevent damage to buildings and machinery at the dam, they successfully recaptured the Thaphanseik Dam on March 28, and Indaing အင်တိုင်း Village, located approximately 5,000 meters west of the Dam, on the afternoon of April 6. During these operations, they seized weapons, ammunition, and related equipment from the terrorist insurgents, who fled in disarray with heavy casualties.As the PDF terrorist insurgents retreated, they set fire to and destroyed the Thaphanseik hydropower plant, resulting in the destruction and loss of power generation equipment at the plant. Additionally, they continued to burn down the homes of innocent local residents in Indaing Village, prompting security forces to conduct firefighting and necessary security procedures.The Thaphanseik is a dam that primarily supplies water to over 500,000 acres of farmland. Furthermore, the Thaphanseik hydropower plant is a facility that regularly transmits electricity to the national power grid. The destruction of this plant by fire has resulted in the loss of electricity generation capacity, thereby harming regional development.The PDF terrorist insurgents, claiming to be acting for local welfare, have in fact delayed regional development. By burning and destroying the power plant, which had no military relevance, they have drawn strong condemnation and criticism from local residents. The security forces, in coordination with responsible authorities, will expedite repair work to restore the destroyed power plant to operation as soon as possible, it’s reported.mitv
