1. Union Minister Dr. Zaw Wai Soe says that all the ethnic groups are engaging in the fight against the military dictatorship
At a town hall community with Myanmar diaspora in Australia, Union Minister Dr. Zaw Wai Soe spoke:
“If we consider whether our ethnic brothers are with us in military affairs or not, they are. Even though the military council claimed that they would seize Laiza, they were unable to accomplish so and instead suffered many losses. Two weeks ago, we managed to capture two of their bases in Kachin. As everyone knows, battles are being fought against them in Karenni as well. All in all, we have started to launch offensives and capture their bases. Our forces have begun to penetrate Myaing Town and Mone Town and have even taken over Mese Town.”
According to the Ministry of Defence, during the two years of the People’s Defensive War, about 9,900 instances of battles took place across the country, eliminating about 30,000 enemy soldiers.
2. The Spokesperson of the Acting President Office and the Deputy Human Rights Minister are going to attend a congressional briefing to be held at the U.S. Congress
The Chin Association of Maryland is going to host a Congressional Briefing: “Escalating Atrocities Against Christians in Burma” at the Russell Senate Building (SR-188) on September 18, and U Aung Kyaw Moe, Deputy Minister of the NUG Ministry of Human Rights, will deliver remarks, and U Kyaw Zaw, Spokesperson of the NUG Acting President Office, will participate as a panellist.
On September 11, Deputy Minister U Aung Kyaw Moe said, “The terrorist junta continues to severely violate the religious freedoms of minorities, and there are many cases of religious buildings of minority religions being burned, fired with heavy artillery, and bombed by aerial bombardment throughout the country. Since Feb 2021, the military has escalated persecution of Christians across Burma by burning churches and targeting pastors and other religious leaders for arrest, arbitrary detention, imprisonment, and killing. The Chin Association of Maryland is hosting a Congressional Briefing at the US Congress. I will be delivering remarks at the Briefing together with the US Commissioner for the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF).”
The United States is a partner country that is helping Myanmar return to the path of democracy.
3. Deputy Minister U Maw Htun Aung says that NUGPay is a fruit of the revolution brought about by institutional effort
Deputy Minister U Maw Htun Aung made a remark about NUGPay: “Institutions relate to both the internal workings of an organisation and its internal obligations, not only to the visible external structure of the organisation. These include financial matters as well as how to manage to deliver the obtained resources safely to regions and forces that really need them and how strategic, standardised methods are used to make distribution decisions. NUG pay is a fruit of the revolution brought about by the institutional effort.”
The NUGPay wallet processed more than 500 billion DMMK worth of transactions, according to NUGPay.
4. A guerrilla defence force used a hand grenade to attack a hideout post in front of Sai Kaung Police Station in Natmauk Township, Magway Division
The OPRF-PLA, a guerrilla defence force, used a hand grenade to attack a hideout post in front of Sai Kaung Police Station in Natmauk Township, Magway Division, according to Comrade Kyaw Gyi, who is in charge of the group.
The attack was made at a location where bunkers are constructed in front of Sai Kaung Police Station at 5:00 p.m. on September 10, 2023, and the extent of the damage was not yet known.
The comrades of the OPRF-PLA who were taking part in the bomb attack were reportedly able to retreat unharmed.
5. Political Prisoners Network-Myanmar conducts a photo campaign called “Hack Saw” to show their solidarity with hunger-striking political prisoners in Monywa Prison
The Political Prisoners Network-Myanmar published the photos from its “Hack Saw” photo campaign, stating that former political prisoners, members of the strike forces, and comrades from the people’s defence forces took part in today’s photo campaign.
The “Hack Saw” photo campaign was carried out to show solidarity with political prisoners in Monywa Prison who are undergoing a hunger strike inside the prison and to stop unlawful oppressions and murdering inside the prisons as soon as possible.
Right now, the prisoners in Monywa Prison are on a hunger strike, demanding three things: the return of the belongings of the prisoners that were seized by the special inspection on September 8, unrestricted delivery of parcels sent to the prisoners, and full responsibility and solving the health issues of the prisoners who are on the hunger strike.
6. The “2023 NUG Prime Minister Cup Soccer Tournament” will be held in Sacramento to raise revolutionary funds
The Free Burma Action Committee (Northern California) will host the 2023 NUG Prime Minister Cup Soccer Tournament on September 16. Donations can be made before and during soccer matches, which will be re-donated to the National Unity Government for use in areas needed during the revolution.
Myanmar residents are invited to attend and support a soccer tournament in Sacramento. A list of fundraiser agents is also provided so that people can make donations.
