Kawmoora
Kawmoora (S'gaw Karen: ကီၢ်မူရၤ; Burmese: ကော့မူးရာ) was a stronghold of the rebel Karen National Liberation Army, the armed wing of the Karen National Union. It was located on a large sandbank linked to Myanmar through a narrow strip of land fortified by a 50-metre (160 ft)-long border wall. Kawmoora was completely surrounded by Thailand.
The Tatmadaw (Myanmar Armed Forces) captured Kawmoora on 21 February 1995.
