In response to recent incidents in the Army, Major Wu suffered an acute myocardial infarction and suffered cardiogenic shock after dinner and died 4 days after receiving first aid; another soldier named Liu committed self-harm after leaving a suicide note on his mobile phone due to personal factors; and three officers and soldiers including the platoon leader Wang died unfortunately. The Army Headquarters stated today (3rd) that the National Army and their families feel the same pain for the loss of life of the officers and soldiers. In addition to assisting the families with funeral arrangements, they will also clarify the truth with the prosecutors and police.

After the farewell ceremony, the sister of Major Wu specially wrote to the unit to express, "When the family was grieving, the unit took the initiative to assist us by staying in the hospital day and night and caring for us during the funeral. The family felt warm in their hearts and accompanied us through the most difficult moments of our lives. She sincerely expressed that during the funeral, we were able to accompany him smoothly on his final journey." She also hoped that the outside world would not use the death of her brother to criticize the military and dampen the morale of the national army.

The Army Headquarters stated that every officer and soldier is the hero of the army and the love of their families. It is our attitude to never hide and shirk responsibility. The entire case of the 206th Brigade King Platoon Commander has been administratively investigated, and the Sixth Army Corps personally explained it to his family. Based on the investigation results, decisions were made on the dereliction of duty cadres of the 206th Brigade, including brigade-level chief officers, replacement of supervisors, and other administrative sanctions. The entire case has now entered judicial investigation, and we will fully cooperate with the prosecutors to find out the truth and will never cover up or shirk responsibility.

The Army Headquarters emphasized that regardless of whether the cause of the incident involves troop management, it deserves in-depth review. It is the responsibility of chief officers at all levels to maintain the safety of officers and soldiers. In addition, improving the ability of psychological support to be able to catch every officer and soldier who needs care and attention is the direction we must strengthen and improve to avoid regrettable incidents.
