[ Myanmar ] Myanmar MiG-29 intruded into & open fired over Thailand’s Tak region airspace

Around noon, a MiG-29 Myanmar air force fighter jet intruded about 4-5 kilometres into Thailand’s airspace, over areas between Ban Wao Lay Tai and Ban Wao Lay Nua villages, a border source said.

The intrusion of the jet fighter and loud explosions in Myanmar caused panic among villagers in the two Thai border villages, prompting them to take shelter in bunkers.

Ban Wao Lay Tai School immediately suspended classes as the intruding fighter jet flew low over its buildings. Ban Wao Lay Nua School evacuated students into bunkers in the school compound. Parents also took shelter in the bunkers, and that school also suspended classes.
