NAYPYITAW, 02 October 2021, (TON): The People’s Defence Force (PDF) in Naypyitaw detonated a bomb at the office of the military’s directorate of procurement, damaging part of the building and an SUV.

The PDF carried out the attack on the office in Pobbathiri Township with the help of a second guerilla group, it said in a statement on Friday, though it did not specify which one. No one was killed or injured in the blast.

Ngwe Soe, a spokesperson for the Naypyitaw PDF, said the office was close to the compound of the military’s Naypyitaw regional command. “More major attacks are on the way,” he said. “We have made all the necessary preparations.”

A Toyota Highlander SUV had some of its lights and its windshield destroyed in the blast, a police report on the incident acquired by local media said.

The procurement office is under the supervision of a major general. It purchases medicines and other commodities for the military and oversees tenders for products in collaboration with the military-owned Myanmar Economic Corporation, a military officer who has defected since the coup told media.
