1. Union Prime Minister says that the terrorist military group must take responsibility for the consequences of their crimes
At the meeting of the Interim Local Administration Central Committee (ILACC) held on March 9, Union Prime Minister Mahn Winn Khine Thann said the following with regard to the increasing terrorist acts of the junta:
“Even though we acknowledge that there may be significant sacrifices in resisting military dictators and establishing a new political system, such precious sacrifices are difficult to accept. For that, the war criminals must be responsible for the consequences.”
The Union Prime Minister also stressed the importance of continuing the required political, military, and diplomatic responses to the junta’s terrorist acts.
2. NUG’s Human Rights Minister urges not to let down the revolutionary spirit
During a recent interview with Burma News Network (BNN) in March, Union Minister U Aung Myo Min of the Ministry of Human Rights urged the public as follows:
“In addition to expecting international assistance to prevent and respond to the barbaric murders and burning of villages by military council troops, it is important for the public to work together with revolutionary forces in resisting the military dictators. Things will get worse if we reduce our revolutionary spirit for the reason that the world community has ignored us.”
The international community is now providing non-lethal assistance to Myanmar, the majority of which is humanitarian aid.

The attack resulted in the deaths of 22 soldiers from the military council and the injuries of five others.”
4. The Ye Bhilu PDF attacked and captured a military camp near Khan Thin bridge in Ye Township in Mon State

The Ye Bhilu group attacked a military camp stationed near the Khan Thin bridge located between Ahryutaung village and Sonnantthar village at around 7:00 a.m. on March 10 and burned down the camp, according to the leader of the Ye Bhilu.
“There are about 15 people on the enemy side. We can only confirm that 5 or 6 of them were injured or killed. The rest fled because they lacked the courage to fight us. We had the first hand. We were able to enter the camp proficiently and seize it,” he said.
The Ye Bhilu group also launched a drone attack on the military council checkpoint located on the Ye Bridge in Ye township, Mon state, on March 7.

According to the MFDMC, 75% of the funds raised from the short film “Urban Guerrilla” will go to the National Unity Government’s Ministry of Defence (MOD-NUG) and 25% will go to the ground battalions in urgent need.
