A woman died. It is known that during the fighting in Mrauk Oo town, the AA captured the Thutaw ma Taung camp, and the policemen from the Surrey Bwe police station surrendered. As their bases were destroyed, the military council troops continued to attack not only the civilian areas not related to the battle, but also the ancient cultural area in Mrauk Oo City with heavy weapons. Mrauk Oo City is the ancient cultural capital of the Rakhine people and is an area that is trying to enter UNESCO. Due to the military council’s heavy weapons fire, the ancient museum, stupas and some houses in Mrauk Oo City were hit and damaged.
