1. The Union Prime Minister says that most of the funds will be spent in the military sector
At the Finance Commission meeting (3/2023) held on June 6, Union Prime Minister Mahn Winn Khaing Thann stated: “Due to the natural state of the finances, it is very important to be able to allocate and manage them efficiently according to priority sectors without any waste. It is true that as the revolution drags on, it becomes more difficult on all sides. Most of the funds received are spent on the military sector, so it is really tight for other sectors to share the remaining funds, but we will still have to continue to focus on the military sector. This is because it is also the sector that will exert the greatest amount of force to end our revolution as soon as possible.”
The Ministry of Defence (NUG) is now working not only to provide food expenses but also to arm the battalions that completed the registration procedure and received IDs.
2. Ambassador U Kyaw Moe Tun attends the screening of revolutionary films in New York
The Helping Hands For Burma (H2B) stated on June 7 that Ambassador U Kyaw Moe Tun attended the screening of revolutionary films in New York.

Ambassador U Kyaw Moe Tun personally came to support the event, and director Na Gyi and actress Paing Phyoe Thu also greeted the fans through a Zoom meeting.”
At the film screening event, merchandise items—a T-shirt with the autographs of the filmmakers, a tote bag, a cap, and an exclusive customised watch presented by a fan to the “Our Turn” film screening team— were reportedly auctioned, and the moviegoers were treated with tea, gelatin juice, and snacks by the H2B family.
3. One school, four civilian houses, and some fruit trees in orchards were destroyed due to the air bombardment of the junta in Kawkareik Township

According to the KNU, two small bombs from the cluster bomb dropped by the Nay Pyi Taw air force base exploded within the campus of the San Phala village school, whose shrapnel hit and damaged windows, doors, the roof, side walls, ceilings, blackboards, poles, a water pot, and fans. Eleven other small bombs landed, of which ten exploded, in the farm field to the west of the school, owned by a 52-year-old U Ou Ta Lone of San Phala village, while another one landed and exploded on the land between the sugarcane plantation owned by Naw Myint and the betel orchard owned by Saw Phar Thel Thage, destroying some sugar cane trees, ten betel trees, and one coconut tree, the report said.
