Update: 2025-12-25
Description
Myanmars military intensifies operations ahead of sham elections, adding 80,000 troops through forced conscription and relying on advanced gear from Russia and China. The junta aims to boost its image by retaking strategic spots, despite fierce pushback from pro-democracy forces and ethnic militias. China steps in as mediator, pressuring militias to retreat from northern Shan state. Fighting continues in Rakhine state, where the Arakan Army holds most of the area, including the Bangladesh border vital for Chinese projects.
