Tatmadaw, in its efforts to ensure the peaceful livelihood of the people, has been conducting counter-terrorism operations in various military command areas. On 17 October, Tatmadaw members successfully regained full control over Hsipaw, which terrorists had temporarily held. In response, ethnic people in Hsipaw have welcomed and supported Tatmadaw’s efforts with appreciation, and some residents who had temporarily fled their homes have begun returning to their original villages.

Tatmadaw military columns are continuing operations to support the safe return of displaced local ethnic residents in and around Hsipaw Township to their homes in towns and villages. Efforts are underway to help them resume peaceful and productive livelihoods and to restore the functioning of government administration.

Yesterday, the departmental officials arrived in Hsipaw to provide necessary assistance and support to the local people. Their mission includes reopening government offices to restore administrative operations, reopening schools to ensure children can resume their learning, and reopening hospitals to provide healthcare services to the public. The local ethnic people warmly welcomed them.

Tatmadaw continues to strengthen and implement necessary security measures to ensure that the public can live in peace and stability.
