Pekon clashes

The Pekon clashes are a series of engagements between the Myanmar SAC junta and anti-coup factions in Pekon Township, Shan State.

Three months after the military coup, Karen militias raided and occupied a police station in Mobye.

In July 2022, the KNDF targeted an unnamed EAO due to the mistaken belief it was delivering food to the Tatmadaw.

In late December 2023, various resistance groups of Operation 1111 were able to capture two junta military bases, Shwe Pyi Aye and Lwal Pator, in the township.
