This evening, the KNLA intensified its assault on the Myanmar military base at Pulutu, deploying drones to drop two bombs on the base at Hill 1248, Laengpoi District, Pha-an District, Karen State. The location is opposite Ban Ta-la-oka, a branch village of Ban Nong Bua, Village 6, Mae Usu Subdistrict, Tha Song Yang District, Tak Province, approximately one kilometer from the border.
