Dr Myint Mo Oo, daughter of Myanmar’s prominent actor-turned-humanitarian U Kyaw Thu, made history at the Sydney Marathon 2025 on Sunday by completing the race in full Myanmar traditional dress, setting a Guinness World Record for the fastest marathon run in traditional attire.

Wearing the complete national dress instead of conventional sportswear, Dr Myint Mo Oo ran the 42.2 km (26 miles) course in 4 hours, 12 minutes, and 19 seconds, drawing international attention not only for her athletic achievement but also for her symbolic message.

She said her participation was intended to ensure the world does not forget Myanmar, highlighting the ongoing crisis, including deadly airstrikes, attacks on civilians, and other brutal acts by the military junta. She also highlighted that her action served as a protest against the junta’s sham election, which aims to legitimise military rule.

Dr Myint Mo Oo is the daughter of U Kyaw Thu, one of Myanmar’s most renowned actors, a two-time Myanmar Academy Award winner, film director, and founder and chairperson of the Free Funeral Service Society (FFSS) in Yangon, a respected humanitarian organisation. He has long been active in social and charitable causes.

Two civilians were killed and six were injured when the military junta bombed a monastery in Nga Kin village, Myinmu Township, with a paramotor yesterday morning, according to local sources.

At around 11:00 a.m. on August 30, two paramotors returning from the military junta’s Northwest Regional Command in Monywa unprovokedly dropped two bombs on the Man Aung Ratana Monastery in Nga Kin village.

“Today is a Sabbath day, so there were many people listening to the Dharma at the monastery. Two men were killed, and six people were injured. Among the injured are a novice monk, about 10 years old, and a girl, about one year old. One man’s leg had to be amputated, and two women are in critical condition,” said a local resident of Myinmu.

According to a Myinmu revolutionary fighter, the residents were not displaced, nor was the village close to a junta base. The attack is believed to be a deliberate act against those observing the Sabbath.

Another revolutionary fighter mentioned that this was the second airstrike on the village. On August 1, a jet fighter from Tada-U airbase bombed the village, but there were no casualties. The military junta likely launched this second airstrike to inflict casualties.

In July 2023, the military junta also burned down nearly half of the 200 homes in Nga Kin village.⁩

The Karen National Union (KNU), the KNU’s Duplaya District, the Karen National Liberation Army (KNLA) Brigade 6, and the Karen National Defense Organization (KNDO) have issued a joint statement urging people not to assist or participate in the military junta’s election.

The statement calls on individuals, religious leaders, community organizations, NGOs, and INGOs within Duplaya District to refrain from assisting the military junta’s election in any way.

The KNU warned that any individual or organization that fails to comply with the statement will be subject to effective action in accordance with Kawthoolei law.

The statement declared that the military junta’s “sham election” is a direct contradiction of the will of the people and is being conducted through terrorism, intimidation, and forced arrests. It will not serve as a solution to the current political conflict.

According to the KNU, the election is solely for the benefit of the coup leaders, their families, their associates, and the political parties groomed by the military, and will not benefit the public.⁩

𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗹𝗮𝘆 — Nearly 200 people have been sentenced to prison by the junta in recent days for transporting fuel from Mandalay to areas in Sagaing Region, Kachin State, and northern Shan State under strong armed resistance, according to People’s Spring News.

A source close to Mandalay police told People’s Spring that the cases had been filed in local courts, with arrests ongoing over the past several days. Courts in townships including Aungmyaythazan, Chanayethazan, Mahaaungmyay, Chanmyathazi, Amarapura, and Patheingyi handed down one-year prison sentences to those convicted.

The military junta has restricted fuel business operators from sending or selling fuel to areas controlled by armed resistance groups. Arrests began in late 2024 when individuals transported fuel to regions under the control of local resistance forces.

Detainees were charged under Section 5 of the Essential Supplies and Services Law, which carries penalties ranging from six months to three years in prison, as well as fines of up to MMK 500,000.

On December 27 last year, 17 people were arrested near a fuel storage site in Nyaungpinzin village, Sagaing Region, along with 22 fuel trucks and 60,000 gallons of various fuels. The junta accused them of supplying fuel to Kachin Independence Army (KIA)-controlled mining areas in Hpakant and Tanai, as well as to People’s Defense Force (PDF)-controlled gold mines along the Chindwin River in Kawlin. It also alleged that fuel was being delivered to Ta’ang National Liberation Army (TNLA) and PDF-controlled gold and mineral extraction sites in Singu, Thabeikkyin, and Mogok.

Junta-affiliated Telegram channels have been urging stricter crackdowns on fuel supplies to resistance areas, calling for punishment of transporters.

𝗦𝗮𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗥𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗼𝗻 — Captured soldiers and local residents have rejected the junta’s propaganda that all military prisoners and their families detained during the battle at Htaw Thar village in Sagaing’s Mawlaik Township were executed by People’s Defence Forces (PDFs).

On August 15, joint PDF columns under the Ministry of Defence of the National Unity Government (NUG), including Myaung District Battalions 2 and 4 as well as local People’s Defence Teams (Pa-Ka-Fa), seized the Pyu Saw Htee militia base at Htaw Thar. During the takeover, more than 190 junta soldiers, militia members and their families, including militia leader Ae Pan, were captured, along with 23 weapons.

On Saturday, the NUG’s No. 1 Military Region released video testimonies from captured soldiers, family members and locals contradicting the junta’s claims.

The junta’s Military Commission had spread claims that over 100 family members were killed by PDFs after the battle. However, one detained soldier, private Chit Oo Maung, refuted this claim as false: “We are all here—men, women, children, armed or unarmed. We are being kept together safely. Nobody has been killed. They have not harmed us.”

Private Ye Min Htay, from 366th Light Infantry Battalion (LIB-366), who was captured along with his family, also confirmed he and his family were not harmed. “The junta spread lies that we were executed, but that’s not true. The PDFs provide us with food, medicine, and care. We eat the same meals as them. We are treated well.”
He added that life at the Htaw Thar outpost under junta command was dire, with low-ranking soldiers often surviving on boiled leaves and roots. In contrast, he said conditions improved under PDF custody, and he urged remaining junta troops to surrender: “If you surrender with your weapons, you even receive rewards. Families are also treated well.”

A captured Pyu Saw Htee militia member from Htaw Thar outpost, Aung Myo Oo, emphasised that ex*****on claims were fabricated and that junta propaganda is designed to instil fear. Htaw Thar villager Than Zaw Tun also denounced junta misinformation.

The released footage showed detainees being given food, clothing, and shelter, with PDF members stating that all defectors and their families would be welcomed and protected if they surrendered peacefully.
