On the Kachin State side, after the Military Council launched an offensive in the Nan Sanyang area near the KIA headquarters in early July, the KIA has been continuously attacking and occupying Military Council camps since the end of July. The KIA has occupied some military council camps on the Myitkyina-Bangmao road near Nan Sanyang area for the past few days. Recently, the KIA has captured the Kathy Taung military camp in Phakant Township. The Kathy Taung military camp is a camp firmly stationed with more than 70 military forces. The details of the incident are not known for sure because the KIA side does not publish it in advance. In addition, fighting continues in the Selzin area of Phakant Township. For the military council, it is like waking up a sleeping tiger.
