It is reported that the fighting in June had the most damage on both sides. CNF issued the warning on June 9th that carrying military council troops or ammunition in public transport vehicles are not allowed and only people who live in Chin State can enter Chin State not from other states or regions.
“ Before, the military council used to increase its forces in ground battles. Now, it has changed its military strategy. We have received inside information that if they send their reinforcements with manpower and weapons, they will used civilian ID cards and wear plainclothes.
And we opened the road to make it easier for the people to eat and travel where there is no fighting. “ We have received confirmation that the military council misused it as an opening for them use to destroy us,” he told Chin Media. He said that since the military’s air force reinforcements are not very effective in the offensive, they are using civilian vehicles to reinforce its troops.

Heavy fighting took place between May 29 and the first week of June due to heavy artillery attacks. There are also casualities on both sides.
