A junta policeman was injured by a bomb explosion at around 7:30 am on May 5 in Paunglaung 2 ward in Phyimana Township in Nay Pyi Taw, according to local news.

The bomb blast occurred near a tea shop, according to a resident, who said that a police car was slightly damaged.

Another bomb blast also occurred outside an agricultural school in Pyinmana on May 5, but no causalities were reported.

At the time of writing, residents often staged anti-coup protests in Pyinmana despite the junta’s crackdowns.

Many explosions have occurred across Myanmar since mid-April.

On May 4, two time-bombs exploded outside the new Moe Kaung Treasure Maternal and Child Hospital, which was recently opened by the junta chief Senior General Min Aung Hlaing.
