According to military sources on the ground, the military junta is using drones and aircraft as well as tanks and howitzers as artillery support during the battle for Demoso, in Karenni State.
The military junta, after reinforcing the Ngwe Taung-based 102nd Infantry Battalion and 427th light Infantry Regiment through Loikaw and Moe Bwe, has advanced into Demoso in full force in the first week of August.
The advance troops were led by the Pa-O National Organisation (PNO) forces, who are experts in the field, and they were able to capture the eastern part of Demoso within just 10 days of their arrival.
In addition, the military junta said that the advance troops are using not only drones and air defenses, but also tanks, howitzers, and heavy weapons.
“The current military advance troops have drones, aircraft, tanks, and howitzers. The drones are also very bad(strong). They are made by hand, but they are very strong. If we fire one shot, the other side will fire four or five shots. If we fire one shot, the tank will fire two shots, the howitzer will fire three shots, and so on,”
a soldier on the ground told BBM.In addition, the military junta has been using air power excessively in the recent battles in Demoso, and in some battles, the air force has been bombing for more than 3 hours.
In addition, it is said that about 2,000 troops have been deployed in the Demoso operation alone.
These lines are led by the Pa-O National Organisation (PNO), who are experts in the field, and are conducting ambushes and advance operations, and there are daily clashes.
In addition, although the military junta has suffered many casualties during the clashes, he added that recently they have been using air power to take back not like before.
“I estimate that there are about 2,000 in Demoso alone. There are daily clashes. Every time they move, these guys keep coming out of hiding. However, in the recent battles, there have been deaths, but not like before.They have taken the bodies back,”
he added. The military junta has been reinforcing not only Demoso in Karenni State but also in Bawlakhe, Phruso, Loikaw and other towns this month, and is deploying troops to the areas where the revolutionary forces are located.
