In a game-changing move last fall three battle-ready militia groups launched an unexpected joint-strike against north-eastern Myanmarʼs military forces. This coordinated attack broke the long-standing power balance in the region — something that seemed impossible before
The military regime which had solid control over the area (thanks to its larger troop numbers and high-tech weapons from Russia and China) now faces a different reality. Their once-firm grip on power started slipping away as rebel forces moved forward
The situation now shows a clear shift: the military lost dozens of key spots including:
* Strategic outposts
* Military bases
* Important cities across the region
Top military commanders dont hide their worries about getting these positions back; its becoming a real problem for them to maintain control. The rebels quick advance changed everything — showing that even well-equipped forces can be pushed back by determined local groups‚
