No one was injured in the explosion in front of Mahar Private School, according to a police source.

According to a junta-aligned Telegram channel a man and a woman on a motorcycle threw a grenade at TEL School and three people on a motorcycle threw a grenade at Mahar School.

Currently, the junta is investigating whether private schools in Myanmar are employing staff taking part in the Civil Disobedience Movement (CDM).

According to reports the junta closed down the Golden Gate Private School, between 80 and 81 Streets in Maha Aung Myay Township, in Mandalay City on 16 August. Apparently, the owner of the school and six teachers were arrested for employing staff taking part in the CDM movement
