CNF said that the military council still can't control Thantlang
The spokesperson of the Chin National Front (CNF), Salai Htet Ni, said that the military council still cannot control Thantlang, Chin State, where the Military Council Army and the Chin Region Defense Forces are stationed on both sides. “There is nothing (controllable). Spreading fake news. There is no battle.” He was talking about the announcement on October 30 that the Ministry of Information of the Military Council had taken control of Thantlang.
Two residents who fled to Hakha town and India due to the fighting in Thantlang told RFA that the military council troops and local defense forces are still in place in the town.
According to the military council's statement, the army was able to regain control of the hospital and high school in Thantlang town on October 29.
The Myanmar Accountability Project announced on October 25 that since October 2021, the military council army and the local defense forces have been fighting over the city of Thantlang, and more than two thousand houses have been burned in the city.
