On 10 June 2025, terrorist groups (still investigating) launched an attack using large weapons in Paingyut Village, Kawkareik Township, Kayin State.

The shell fell into the compound in front of U Kalar (still investigating), who was teaching the students at the Paingyet Basic Education Middle School and exploded. Four people: Daw Mi Thazin, aged 36, student Maung Wai Yan Aung, aged eight, student Ma La Yeik Cho, aged 10, and student Ma Thuzar Aye, aged six, died on the spot. Volunteer Ma Moe Thuzar, aged 25, student Maung Law Chan, aged seven, Saw San Myint Aung, aged seven, Ma Nge Nge, aged seven, Ma May La Wun, aged seven, Ma Ei Nandar Phyo, aged seven, Ma Thun Thun Eainsi Lin, aged nine, and Ma Thi Thi Phyo, aged nine, totalling 19 (one teacher, five male students and 13 female students) were wounded. The officials took them to a dispensary in Kanyin Kataik village and Mawlamyine General Hospital for medical treatment.

Terrorists intentionally launched attacks in townships, wards and villages with heavy weapons, rockets and bomb drops. Therefore, locals strongly condemn terrorists as their attacks cause casualties and injuries among government employees, volunteers and students. Security forces conduct security measures in cooperation with locals.
