THREE education staff were injured when PDF terrorists launched two FPV suicide drones at the Basic Education High School (Branch) (Aung Zeya) in Indaw Town­ship, Sagaing Region, on 12 May.

 

The attack occurred at around 11:45 am while teachers and office staff were carrying out prepa­rations for the upcoming school reopening season, including student enroll­ment and classroom ar­rangements. The drones were launched from about 2,600 metres west of In­daw and exploded inside the school compound, damaging school build­ings, and one headteach­er of the primary school and two office staff were injured.

 

PDFs intentional­ly launched attacks on non-military targets, such as educational buildings where students peace­fully study, and such ac­tion is considered a war crime under the Geneva Conventions and interna­tional law. Locals strongly condemn and reject these acts of violence, and se­curity forces are intensi­fying security measures. — MNA/KTZH
