A local in Sanchaung Township told Mizzima, "It was loud. It happened twice in front of the Sanchaung court."

A source confirmed that a bomb had exploded around the court near Sanchaung No (4) State High School.

No one was injured in the blasts, but Mizzima was unable to independently verify this.
