Guerrillas bomb bus service and other targets in Yangon

Anti-junta guerrillas targeted a number of junta-related sites in Yangon on 3 November.

At around 9:00 pm, an urban guerrilla force detonated a remote-controlled bomb at the Yangon Bus Service (YBS) compound on East-Horse Racing Road, Tamwe township, Yangon.

“Before the Military Council guards noticed, an explosive bomb was dropped in front of the gate of the Yangon Bus Service (YBS) compound, and then it was detonated from a distance,” said a spokesperson for Black panda from the Yangon Special Guerrilla Force. “There were security guards around, so we had to disguise ourselves to detonate it.”

The Yangon Special Guerrilla Force carried out the attack, and one junta soldier was injured as a result of the explosion.

Around the same time, other guerrilla actions took place in Yangon.

Human Rights Defenders force detonated a remote-controlled mine in the YBS car compound owned by Myanma Economic Holdings Public Company Limited owed by the Myanmar military, at the corner of Min Ye Kyaw Swa Road and Ka Naung Minthar Gyi Road, East Dagon Township, at 8:30 pm, according to a statement released by Yangon Special Guerrilla Force.

According to local residents, there were explosions in North Dagon, South Okkalapa, and Bahan townships around 9 pm on the same night.
