A local news source said that more than 30 war refugees, including children, were killed when the military council army bombed the Kachin Liberation Organization (KIO/KIA) headquarters in Laiza town on October 9 after 11:00 pm. Air strikes have been carried out several times, and now the military council forces are targeting civilians living in war-torn areas.
He said that among the dead are children who have not reached the age of majority, and more than 50 people have been injured. “ I don’t know what kind of bomb it was. It fell near the refugee camp. It happened at night, so children were also killed. Homes were also damaged,” said a local news source. The last night bomb was very strong.
The place where it fell became a large crater and exploded far away. Even far away from us, the locals said that the ground shook. In addition, the search for the dead is still ongoing, and the injured have been transported to a hospital in Laiza, where they died. He said he did not know the exact number of injured. The village is only two miles away from Laiza city, where many refugees fleeing the war due to the local fighting are taking refuge. It is also located on the road from Laiza to China. In October 2022, the Military Council Air Force bombed a place where many civilians lived in the Anant Pa area of Pha Kant Township, Kachin State, and many people were killed and injured.
