The Battle of Namhsan was an offensive by the TNLA against the Myanmar military junta during Operation 1027. The TNLA attacked numerous military bases and police stations while fending off reinforcements exiting Y-12 and ATR-42 planes, along with air support from Mi-35 helicopters and fighter jets.[1]
After the battle, the TNLA captured large caches of weapons and ammunition from police stations and military bases.[2][3][4]
