Paukkaung township internet cut amid military bombing, February 2025
2025-02-19 → Resolution unclear
- Bago: confirmed by 1 independent source — STOP — last checked 2025-12-09
DRAFT — needs an editor rewrite. Access Now STOP record: internet cut in Paukkaung township, Bago Region, during a military-council bombing campaign against surrounding villages that forced civilian displacement. Previously presented jointly with the Nattalin township shutdown (Dec 2025) as one "Bago Region" regional pattern; split into two events (maintainer research, 2026-07) since the two incidents are ten months apart, in different townships, with no evidence of simultaneous or continuous region-wide disruption — see 2025-12-bago-nattalin-shutdown for the other constituent record.
Resolution note: No source confirms a resolution date. Split from the former grouped event 2025-bago-region-shutdowns (maintainer research, 2026-07): Paukkaung (Feb 2025) and Nattalin (Dec 2025) are ten months apart, in different townships, and most plausibly tied to distinct military operations rather than one continuous regional pattern — kept as two separate events per the maintainer's explicit scope decision (internal research notes). Stale-ongoing review (M2 patch, 2026-07, carried over from before the split): a short, localized, bombing-triggered cutoff — general web search found no reporting of a continuing or renewed shutdown in this specific township into 2026. Reclassified from ongoing to unresolved rather than assumed still active.
