In 1944 during World War II, a major campaign was fought in Indaw between Japanese and British forces.[2] The Japanese had two airfields at Indaw, the Indaw West strip [3] and the Indaw Lake strip.[4]

On 7 April 2025, a combined force of the Kachin Independence Army, People's Defense Force, and ABSDF captured the town from the State Administration Council junta.[5]
