The new village of Thlanrawn has approximately 29 houses, the old village has roughly 71 houses. The village\u2019s total population is around 500 people. Since July, the military junta troops have invaded the village three times, causing every villager to flee to nearby villages or to Falam town for their safety.<\/p>\n<p id=\"tw-target-text\" class=\"tw-data-text tw-text-large tw-ta\" dir=\"ltr\" data-placeholder=\"Translation\"><span class=\"Y2IQFc\" lang=\"en\">Under the name of \u201cOperation Anawrahta (\u1021\u1014\u1031\u102c\u103a\u101b\u1011\u102c\u1005\u1005\u103a\u1006\u1004\u103a\u101b\u1031\u1038)\u201d, the military junta moved its troops, doing clearance operations in Chin State.

During their encampment, the military council stole villagers\u2019 clothes and belongings from their homes such as warm clothes, rice, pigs, and chickens. Furthermore, they threatened villagers with their weapons which eventually forced the villagers to flee their homes to the forest. The villagers were able to return to the village only after the Burmese military council troops left the village.<\/p>\n<p>From 1st to 15th August, another offensive by the military council took place in Falam Township on the Falam-Hakha road as the fighting resumed. As a result of the fight, almost the entire village of Thlanrawn had to flee once more.<\/p>\n<p>In October, heavy fighting erupted in Chin State under the \u201cAnawrahta Operation\u201d by the military council. The junta had set up camps in villages along the route of their march. Camping in the village, burglary and arson were carried out to intimidate the civilians.<\/p>\n<p>On 14th October, the military council troops marching towards Hakha from Falam township invaded the new village of Thlanrawn and set houses ablaze. Around 14 houses, including the pastor\u2019s house, were burnt down. Not only did they break into homes, but they also stole and killed domestic animals.<\/p>\n<p>On 25th October, another military convoy returning from Hakha to Falam, re-entered the new village of Thlanrawn and set fire to three more houses. Thlanrawn Baptist Church\u2019s pews and Hymns were also destroyed. The value of damages was estimated at over 158.9 million Myanmar Kyats.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1634\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1634\" style=\"width: 659px\" class=\"wp-caption
