More than 5,000 people have fled their homes in Myanmar’s southernmost Tanintharyi region, locals told RFA Monday.
The mass exodus follows the capture of 30 residents of villages in Thayetchaung township during junta raids between Thursday and Sunday.
Locals said at least six villages are empty after residents fled in heavy rains.
One woman, who didn’t wish to be named for safety reasons, told RFA a convoy of around 100 soldiers entered Ka Net Thi Ri village on Thursday, only to be ambushed by members of a local People’s Defense Force.
A junta ship arrived by sea and reinforcements opened fire with heavy artillery.
