TERRORISTS blew up the railway section at milepost 107/10-9 between Kyauktaga and Peinzalok railway stations on the Yangon-Mandalay railway in Kyauktaga Township, Bago Region, at 10 pm on 25 February, causing the railway section between Kyauktaga and Peinzaloke temporarily closed.

The regional officials and security forces members proceeded to the site promptly for inspection, and the MR staff replaced two destroyed rail tracks to reopen the railway section as quickly as possible.

After the maintenance, the railway section was reopened at 3:30 pm on 26 February.

Since 1 February 2021, these terrorist groups have been implicated in 174 mining incidents and explosions within railway areas and stations, 80 blasts on railway bridges, and 16 instances of torching stations and employee housings. Their actions aim to destabilize the rule of law and endanger the safety of travellers, drawing widespread condemnation from the public.
