22 June 2011
A battle has been going on since 07:00 until 20:00 yesterday at Ta Pha Hsawng crossing of Lawng river, a tributary of the Pang, between 3 townships: Kehsi, Mongyai and Hsipaw. One of the Shan State Army 27th Brigade’s units was attacked by Mongao-based Infantry Battalion 33. Both sides have been taking a break since until 09:00 this morning, with reinforcements coming to each side. “It’s a sort of encirclement game,” said one officer, “First, they encircled us and then, we encircled them. Then they encircled us again and so on.” (SHAN)
