The Information Team of the Myanmar State Administration Council stated that on the morning of the local time, Myanmar handed over a number of Chinese nationals from the Myawaddy telecom fraud park to the Mae Sot area in Thailand. According to the confessions of the relevant personnel and preliminary investigations, the majority of these individuals were coerced into participating in illegal and criminal activities such as telecom fraud and online gambling.

The Myanmar government has stated that it will actively cooperate with neighboring countries to carry out joint operations, rigorously crack down on illegal activities such as telecommunications fraud and online gambling in the Myawaddy telecom fraud parks, and orderly conduct the repatriation and transfer of illegal immigrants.

In the morning, a Chinese charter plane landed at Mae Sot Airport on the Thai side of the Thai-Myanmar border to repatriate Chinese nationals who had been deported from a scam compound in Myanmar. After the first batch of repatriated individuals boarded the plane, the first Chinese charter plane departed from the airport.

In addition to the first charter flight, several more charter flights will arrive at Mae Sot Airport in succession to continue repatriating the individuals back to their home country.
