This was after the PDF fighters detonated explosives in an attack against a military convoy travelling nearby, triggering an assault on the village by some 100 junta soldiers. An additional person burned was a civilian and the reason is unknown as to why he was burned. 8 December-  a 90-minute clash broke out between the CDF and Tatmadaw forces in military-occupied town of Thantlang.

More houses were burned in military-occupied Thantlang this week, with well over a quarter of the Chin State town's buildings now destroyed in 12 incidents, which makes it difficult for CDF rebels to hide in the buildings. 9 December- resistance fighters from the Myaing People's Defence Force (PDF) in Magway Region attacked two military vehicles with 3 handmade explosives in an ambush in the early morning. PDF claimed the ambush injured at least 3 soldiers. Later at noon, PDF attacked soldiers again who were leaving the village in Mintharkya on foot, sparking a shootout between the two sides. However, there are no casualty reports on this particular clash. 12 December- 
 After 4 days of fierce fighting between combined force of KNDF and Karenni Army (KA) fighters, and troops from the military's Light Infantry Battalion 428 and police, it was claimed by KNDF that 4 Tatmadaw soldiers were killed however, it was a pure guess as the KNDF spokesperson said, "We're not sure if they died, but it's safe to assume that at least three or four of their soldiers were severely injured". The Tatmadaw forces also killed 4 PDF-appointed community guards and 3 PDF fighters as well as injuring 3 PDF fighters in the village of Guang Kwe in the Sagaing region during two days of fighting. The resistance fighters then had to retreat from the village after military employed heavy weapons and snipers. Tatmadaw troops killed 8 Mandalay civilian guerrilla groups when two resistance hideouts were raided.

Fighting occurred at the Maha Aung Myay base and seven PDF members were killed and a junta soldier suffered a minor bullet wound in his stomach while another PDF fighter was killed in Pyigyitagon base after throwing a homemade bomb at junta forces and running away. 13 December-
 Tatmadaw troops launched an offensive against PDF fighters as well as another local resistance group calling itself Zayar 7 in Ke Bar village in Sagaing Region's Ayadaw Township which is assisted by artillery bombardment. The resistance fighters had to retreat due to the superior firepower of the assaulting Tatmadaw troops. Tatmadaw soldiers captured 12 suspected resistance fighters including 3 injured fighters after several bombs exploded by accident in Yangon's Hlaing Tharyar Township. 2 additional resistance fighters who escaped were also captured later on by plain clothed and armed Tatmadaw troops who were wearing bulletproof vests. There have been several other cases of guerrilla fighters across Myanmar dying in accidents caused by handmade explosives. Depayin PDF leader reported that Tatmadaw forces have surrounded the Sagaing's Depayin Township where PDF fighters are positioned. Depayin PDF leader also told Myanmar NOW, "Things are really bad here. They're not even stopping anymore. They keep sending column after column to the region. Right after a column has passed the village, another column will come". Since last month the military has sent around 150 soldiers of the Airborne Division in six helicopters to the west of Depayin to carry out Air Assault missions. 14 December- Around 200 Tatmadaw soldiers conducted a search in the town of Lay Kay Kaw Myothit, located near the Thai border which is under the control of KNU Brigade 6. Tatmadaw troops then arrested several people believed to be linked to anti-junta movements including a NLD lawmaker, Wai Lin Aung. The Tatmadaw troops, who arrived in four convoys from Light Infantry Battalion 560, also searched Lay Kay Kaw's residential Nyein Chan Yay ward looking for activists and members of the People's Defence Force. KNU Brigade 6 spokesperson did not answer to calls which are to ask if the group had authorised the raid. 17 December
 20 resistance fighters from Yaw Defence Force were killed after the Tatmadaw launched a surprise air assault on the village of Hnan Khar in Magway Region's Gangaw Township where YDF was holding a meeting. Three helicopters were involved in the air assault on the village.

The raid, which targeted a house located near the village of Laharyet, was carried out at around 9am.
