An airstrike by Myanmar's military on the Arakan Army-controlled Kyauk Ni Maw village killed about 40 civilians, including women and children, and injured over 20.

As a result of the bombing, more than 500 houses were destroyed in the village, underscoring the severe humanitarian impact of the conflict in the region.
Khaing Thukha of the Arakan Army confirmed the death toll, emphasizing that all casualties were civilians caught in the conflict's crossfire.
