The Myanmar military has deployed two convoys carrying hundreds of reinforcement troops toward the Chin State–Magway Region border as heavy fighting continues across multiple frontlines in southern Chin State.
Clashes have concentrated around Kyatwee (Kyindwe) in Kanpetlet Township and Shweaungthar Village in Magway’s Tiling Township.
Shweaungthar serves as a strategic transit hub linking Chin State, Rakhine State, and Magway’s Yaw region.
On November 2, roughly 100 junta troops in four military vehicles arrived in Laungshey from Minbu and took up positions inside Weapons Factory No. 25 (DDI 25).
Resistance sources in the Yaw area said the troops are slated to reinforce junta positions in Kyatwee, where daily clashes have caused casualties on both sides.
A second convoy of nine vehicles left Weapons Factory No. 24 in Pauk Township on November 2, moving toward Kyaukhtu. The convoy reportedly carried signal-jamming vehicles, drone-operation units, military supplies, and approximately 500 infantry troops.
These forces are expected to advance toward the Shweaungthar frontline through Artillery Battalion 368 in Kyaukhtu.
Skirmishes and military standoffs continue across Saw, Kanpetlet, Kyaukhtu, and Mindat. Junta forces have committed thousands of troops to launch offensives against towns in southern Chin State, encountering resistance from coalition forces led by the Chin People’s Union/Chin People’s Army (CPU/CPA).
The current offensive, which began on May 16, has lasted nearly six months.
Since launching the offensive, the military regime has consistently used weapons factories in Pauk and Laungshey as operational staging grounds, sending reinforcements and ammunition to the frontlines at least six times.
In response to these escalating clashes, CPU/CPA leadership has appealed for public support to sustain resistance operations and counter ongoing junta offensives.
