Resistance Drone Attacks Hit Naypyidaw Military Headquarters and Aye Lar Air Base

The National Unity Government (NUG) declared successful coordinated drone strikes by resistance forces on Myanmar Army command headquarters and Aye Lar Air Base in Naypyidaw.

NUG reported that kamikaze drones were used in attacks carried out on the morning of April 4.

"At the moment, all we can confirm is that there is damage and casualties resulting from

the attacks. Our mission is ongoing , so we are unable to disclose further details at this time”, an individual who participated in the operations told Than Lwin Times.

The Army command headquarters was targeted by special units of the People's Defense Force (PDF) and the Kloud Drone team of the Shar Htoo WAW Tactical Force.

This appears to be new landmark in the annals of the resistance since the 2021 coup, and the first time an effective attack has been able to hit 2 major targets in the highly protected capital of Naypyidaw.
