The Military Council sent a letter to the Chinese apologizing for the shells fired from Myanmar which landed on the Chinese city Wan Ting, on the China-Myanmar border.

Coup Military Council troops, marching near Kyukot (Pangsai) township in Shan State, were involved in an attack by 50 or so troops of MNDAA on August 6. During the fighting, shells fired from Myanmar side landed in Chinese territory.

The Military said in the apology that the shells that hit the Chinese city of Wan Ting were not fired by the Tatmadaw, but by the MNDAA.
