It is known that around 10 p.m. on July 6, when about 10 soldiers from the Light Infantry Battalion (LIB) 50, based in Gangaw town, came out to guard the area on the west side of the Wilat Bridge crossing the Myittha River in Gangaw town, towards Anauk Gangaw village, revolutionary forces launched an attack. It is understood that during this attack, two soldiers from the terrorist army were injured and are receiving treatment at Gangaw Town Hospital. It is also known that the revolutionary comrades were able to withdraw without casualties after the attack. "The exchange of fire lasted for about 15 minutes. Because the military dogs' cigarette lights were visible, our side advanced to scout, and that's when the army side fired first, leading to a two-sided firefight. We heard that two military dogs were injured and hospitalized during the attack," said a responsible person from the Black Dragon Force. Similarly, a regional military source told the Yangon Khit Thit News Agency that troops stationed in Lonlon town, Tanintharyi Region, were attacked with drone bombings, resulting in casualties among soldiers.

Although there were casualties on the army's side during this attack, the number has not yet been confirmed. "The military column has been moving back and forth between Ngyinmaw village and Sippe village, but they have not entered the villages. We heard that the current attack was carried out by drones when those soldiers returned to the town and were still stationed in the monastery. Although the number of casualties among the military dogs has not been confirmed, there have been casualties," said the regional military source. It is known that this column, on July 1, reinforced with about 150 troops from Lonlon town with provisions and personnel, entered Sippe village firing guns, which led to a battle between the revolutionary allied forces and both sides, and then retreated to Lonlon town.
