The Thai-Myanmar border checkpoint in Tak province’s Mae Sot district reopened on Sunday after Myanmar troops regained control of Myawaddy township.

 

On Saturday, the immigration checkpoint located at the Thai-Myanmar Friendship Bridge in Ban Rim Moei village was shut following heavy fighting as Myanmar soldiers battled Karan troops and members of the People’s Defence Force (PDF).

Authorities in Myawaddy urged Thai officials to prevent Thai nationals and foreigners from crossing the border into Myanmar while fighting was underway.
