Opponents of Myanmar's junta launched a rocket attack on an airport in the capital but caused no casualties, security sources told AFP on Wednesday, after a rare breach of the military's seat of power.
The military's ouster of Aung San Suu Kyi's government in a 2021 coup sparked renewed fighting with ethnic minority armed groups, as well as with pro-democracy "People's Defence Forces" (PDFs).
Two rockets had targeted Naypyidaw Airport on Tuesday morning, a security source told AFP on condition of anonymity.
Two other security sources said one rocket had been launched at the airport.
All three sources said the rockets had caused no casualties or major damage.
AFP was unable to reach a junta spokesman for comment.
Set amid arid scrubland in the centre of the country, the sprawling military-built city of Naypyidaw is home to the junta's top brass and civil servants.
With a heavy security presence in the surrounding area, the city has seen relative calm as fighting between the military and its opponents ravages swathes of the country.
In April PDF groups launched more than a dozen drones at targets in Naypyidaw, temporarily closing the airport.
The junta said the attack caused no major damage.
Outgunned and outnumbered, opponents of the junta have increasingly taken drones into their arsenal, with devastating effect.
Many groups operate commercial drones adapted to carry bombs that can be dropped on military positions.
