Junta soldiers who were fleeing amid air support firings at the strategically important Nat Ywar Kan air defense strategy outpost have been captured again by AA.

Due to the momentum of the Arakan Army's offensive, in addition to capturing some junta soldiers who were fleeing on October 17,

some junta soldiers have also surrendered by raising white flags and laying down their arms, as stated by the Arakan Army.

Currently, the Arakan Army is intensely attacking the Nat Ywar Kan air defense strategy outpost base, which is continuously supplied with junta air defense missiles and reinforcements from Magway Region's Ngape Township.

On October 14 at 9:00 AM, the Arakan Army completely captured the junta's Point 666 outpost base near Pogan Gwe (Pan Kan Kwe) village in Pann Taung Township, Bago Region.

During the battle to capture that outpost base, the Arakan Army seized some junta soldiers' bodies, as well as ammunition, weapons, and military supplies, according to the ULA/AA statement.

ULA/AA states that those who surrender by laying down arms to the Arakan Army and captured junta soldiers are being well protected and cared for in accordance with the law.

In addition, ULA/AA urges junta soldiers who have been forcibly conscripted to surrender by laying down arms at the nearest Arakan Army locations.
