Healthcare services and donations of food and essential supplies are being provided to flood-stricken areas. Rescue and rehabilitation are ongoing in neighbourhoods and villages affected by flooding across states and regions, including Nay Pyi Taw Council areas.

Efforts were coordinated yesterday in Zeyathiri, Pyinmana, Tatkon, Lewe, and Pobbathiri townships of Nay Pyi Taw, as well as in Kalaw Township of southern Shan State, Loikaw Township in Kayah State, and Taungoo Township of Bago Region.

Volunteers, including Tatmadaw members, police officers, firefighters, and Red Cross members, worked alongside locals to relocate necessary items, clear debris, and provide sanitation services. Fallen trees were also removed, and access roads and bridges were cleared of any blockages.

In addition, Commander Maj-Gen Soe Min of the Nay Pyi Taw Regional Command and other officials visited affected areas in Lewe Township, including Shwetaiktan Village and Nanwinn Ai Village monasteries, to meet with monks and provide them with donations. They offered food supplies such as rice, oil, salt, and dried fish to the flood-hit residents in these areas. They then oversaw community cleaning efforts at local schools and monasteries.

Similarly, Maj-Gen Kyi Thike, commander of the Southern Regional Command visited flooded areas in Taungoo Township, including Anauksinywa Village and Shwehlaytaw Village near damaged dams, offering words of encouragement and food supplies to displaced residents. The commander and his team also visited temporary relief camps to inspect ongoing healthcare services and food preparation efforts.
