Despite the ceasefire agreement in northern Shan State between the Brotherhood Alliance and the regime, Myanmar's junta has reportedly violated the ceasefire with ongoing airstrikes, as reported by the Ta’ang National Liberation Army (TNLA).

The representatives from both sides had met in Kunming, China, agreeing to an immediate ceasefire and resolving issues through dialogue. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning expressed support for the ceasefire, emphasizing its benefit to all parties and contributing to peace along the border.

However, the TNLA reported 19 artillery strikes in multiple townships in northern Shan State and Mogoke Township in Mandalay Region on Friday.

The junta’s base in Kyaukme town twice shelled Par Poat village and regime troops at Phyu Young village in Mogoke shelled Nyaung Kone village. The junta base in Hsipaw town in northern Shan State shelled Mann Hae village on the same day. Regime forces in Lashio city shelled Kone Paung, Ma Kee Nu and Ae Nine villages in Lashio Township.

Clashes broke out in Kyaukme Township on Saturday while junta troops attacked a TNLA base, with the armed group withdrawing after two hours of fighting. The TNLA said the junta had broken the ceasefire numerous times since Thursday.

The Ta’ang Women’s Organization said 123 civilians were killed and 239 injured by airstrikes, shelling and landmines in 16 northern Shan State townships since Operation 1027 began on October 27.

The junta has since lost control of 16 towns in northern Shan State and 14 in Kachin, Karenni and Chin states and Sagaing Region.
