BANGKOK: The Thai military in Kanchanaburi is monitoring ongoing clashes between anti-junta forces and Myanmar military troops in Dawei Township, located in Myanmar’s Tanintharyi region.
According to the Lat Ya Task Force, fighting between Myanmar’s military and anti-government forces has been ongoing since April 7.
On April 19, the resistance forces successfully seized the first strategic command post, located approximately 10 kilometres from the Thai-Myanmar border.
Following this victory, the anti-junta forces intensified their operations, launching continuous attacks on Myanmar military bases near the Ban Phu Nam Ron Border Pass.
Given the escalating situation, the Surasee Force and the Thai-Myanmar Border Command Centre in Kanchanaburi have been closely monitoring developments, the task force reported.

The Lat Ya Task Force has coordinated with government agencies and local authorities by deploying additional personnel and military equipment.
They have also enhanced operational measures along the border near Ban Phu Nam Ron, conducting round-the-clock military activities to mitigate any impact on local communities.
Furthermore, the Surasee Force has been working closely with the Royal Thai Air Force (RTAF) in the event of any aerial activity by neighbouring countries near the border, aiming to prevent violations of Thai sovereignty amid regional unrest. - The Nation/ANN
