Myanmar's civil war reshaped in past year with coordinated offensive by powerful resistance groups
Three armed militias launched a surprise joint offensive in northeastern Myanmar, taking significant territory and inspiring further attacks across the country, marking a change in the civil war's dynamics.
The resistance forces now control a vast area from Rakhine state to Kayah and Kayin states, challenging the military's ability to regain territory.
Connor Macdonald stated that the military may find it difficult to recapture lost territory and warned of potential scenarios similar to Syria.
