Although PDF terrorists and KNLA joint forces with superior strength in number had repeatedly attacked the Ukrihta outpost of the Tatmadaw, they faced heavy casualties because the officers and ranks at the base repelled the enemy’s attacks using air and ground fire supports with gallant morale without considering the risk of their lives. Moreover, amid the certain restrictions of weather and terrain, the military columns of reinforcements succeeded in joining with the troops from the Ukrihta outpost and now continue security measures in the outpost and the vicinity area.

The military columns are now taking necessary security measures to ensure that no terrorists can take strongholds in the Ukrihta area.
