Myanmar Military Airstrikes Kill Four Civilians in Sagaing and Rakhine States
The Myanmar military conducted heavy airstrikes on August 3, 2026, targeting Monywa Township in the Sagaing Region and Thandwe Township in Rakhine State. Local resistance forces reported that the strikes killed at least four people, including a child just over one year old, and wounded 14 others. These attacks occurred shortly after junta leader Min Aung Hlaing's 100-day speech, where he defended the continuation of the military conscription law and infrastructure projects despite ongoing conflict.
