Thank you for being one of the few people in the media who actually bother to do any in depth reporting on Myanmar.
More in-depth and way more information than your major news.
There's Kaos all over😢
Only if you cannot see through his propaganda.@@aungyethu6560
Who tf cares? It's like caring about your neighbours getting in a fight. I have my own problems,
@not everyone likes being ignorant to what's going on in the world.
As someone who shares the same ethnicity as the Chin rebels, Thank you for covering this story. It's clear that nobody else cares.
Care to tell us what the hell is actually going on down there? This is actually the first time i hear about a war going on in that region.
@@0neKingD0wn2020 it started
@0neKingD0wn A military coup happened that overthrew a democratically elected government in 2020. The coup was supported by the CCP and happened primarily because the then president and nobel prize winner wanted the military to have less power than it did. Especially after the ethnic cleansing going on in the south west of the country against the Rohingya.
Chin has an army not rebels I’m from usa yet I hear they are an army not rebels and hate being called that
@@0neKingD0wnmaybe you should watch or read the news. This is not new
Love & Support from Finland to the Myanmar Rebel Forces! Stay strong and may Lady Luck protect you rebels!
None of them care about democracy or freedom, warlords in remote regions for their own interests

Thank you for standing with us.
Over 50 years ago, while attending Vietnamese Language School in Washington, D.C. we had a class next to us being taught in Burmese by a young Karen teacher. During a break I told her than some day I would love to visit her country, her answer was "The reason I am not living in my home country is because my government wants to kill me and my fellow Karens! You can visit that military dictatorship, but I can't!" That's when I first found out about the genocide ongoing in that Asian nation.
Very sad and sorry to hear you tell that story. As a citizen of Vietnam, I have heard stories about the dictatorship and discrimination against ethnic minorities there. I am very sorry. worried about the people there and even about my country because we live in the same area, even though both countries are quite far apart. And a moment that reminded me of the Khmer Rouge genocide regime in Cambodia in the past
@@sirmiles1820There's a lot of Karens in the US tho
I guess she never bothered to mention the atrocities carried out by the Karen themselves
@@alan30189 Read the comment above you, here it is again, "Note: Karen is an ethnic group of people in Myanmar not USA group of people. 2 different peoples the myanmar ones are the bravest."
@@alan30189 Uh, I think you'll find it's the name of an ethnic group in that part of the world - like the Uyghars that the Chinese are killing
A federal military is strong only if ONE rebel group at a time, in one direction, "starts troubles." If you have half a dozen major rebel groups, from every side of a nation started going at the central government at the same time, in a seemingly coordinated manner, it's going to be a very hard problem to deal with. And the Myanmar military now also has lost the support of the MAJORITY ethnic in the country, after putting that group's civilian leader in prison... so these Junta guys are likely going down with their "Hoonta Ship" to the bottom of the sea...
Junta has always played the game "if everybody is the enemy then, I will be your friend" strategy to rule over Myanmar. Playing one force against another. Finally, they decided after the COUP to reveal that they are actually "the REAL Enemy of everyone". They might play the game again if things get messy. probably will if History is to be followed. I have ZERO hope of a peaceful transition. blood will flow like a river in Myanmar, it is already a torrent.
What happens when the rebel groups win? My guess is they start fighting amongst themselves. Myanmar is in for a long slog unfortunately.
No, a federal military is only strong, when the people they're fighting don't have the weapons they do, to fight back. It's easy when you have firearms and your opposition has rocks and sticks. Firearms don't make you a man. Doesn't matter how old you are, the fear of dying scares all men. It's easy when you know you have a weapon and your opponent does not. It's different now, with the possibility of being killed, is real.
In my opinion, any military or police officer that shoots unarmed civilians, is a coward. They don't know what real combat is. The moment these cowards engage in real combat with people fighting back with the same force, they run and get their arses kicked. They don't fight with the same courage they once did, when they know their opposition is just as armed.
@@Winstonrodney6989 exactly
thats the sad part @@Winstonrodney6989
As someone from Myanmar,
I agree, it’s worrisome thinking about what will happen once the military collapses.
I really pray and hope the NUG can hold the peace and bring all the different ethnic groups to form a new civilian government that represents everyone.
It does give me hope that almost all groups were willing to have peace when there was a quasi democracy trial in the country. But honestly, after seeing how the world turned their backs on us, I have zero hopes and no desire whatsoever for them to ever get involved in our affairs.
Our country is very diverse ethnically and our problems are too complex for most outsiders to understand, that is if they even care in the first place.
It’s rare and heartwarming to see a few people caring and actually following this war so thank you so much for reporting on this war.🙏🏽
I am not sure why people from Myanmar expect the world to step in to help. They were quite passionate in justifying the murders, rape and expulsion of the Rohingyas, basically telling the world to go and get stuff. It was only a few years ago that their leader tried to justified these crimes at the UN while Buddhist priests were ranting and swearing at the world to butt out. There are so much suffering in the world that there are not that much sympathy for those who think murders and disposessions of others are ok but not their own. As a follower of the Buddha, I find it hard to summon the required sympathy while a million Rohingyas are suffering in refugee camps or dying at sea.
@@ianluong8039 that's why it is said too complex for most outsiders to understand it. The current military dictator was already having the ability to dictate what it is to say and not, threatening everybody in charge and basically ASSK listened to him to avoid further problems. It was a mistake to expect people like you to do something good for Myanmar unless it was for a talk show. It bothers me deep when someone says something like this as if they were really gonna be able to help.
It amazes me how fickle the media have been in their coverage of Myanmar. I remember it being covered as a tragedy and the numerous crimes against humanity, soldiers shooting students in their backs as they ran away, then it disappeared from the news cycle. It was shameful.
Thank you for the effort to keep this in the public eye. I wish mainstream media outlets thought the same.
No one cares Palestine is the current thing the left will soon get bored maybe they will protest this as well
Only Ukraine and Israel matter Sudan Ethiopia Myanmar etc etc don’t matter because they aren’t white.
Thank you, as an American it can be difficult to find decent information on this important conflict.

Great to see this reporting on the civil war in Myanmar, which is ignored by most western media. Respect to the rebels for their bravery and persistence.
Western media ignores a lot, but that is not the cause of all problems. Maybe it's a good thing that western media minds it's own, western business. The west might get the idea that the west should intervene there as well. Or at least pick a side.
@@worfozThe Junta is being supported by Russia so I am sure Western intelligence agencies have some hands in the pie. I have seen footage of westerners training rebels.
@@worfoz If the current crisis in Israel (and the two-sided history that created it) is anything to learn from, it's that civil wars should be purely internal matters. You'll make the wrong decision no matter which side you take.
@@yawningpheonixYou would think the USA and other western nations would figure this out.
@@johnglue1744
US citizens understand this.
Well connected and wealthy politicians and individuals understand this as well, the same ones who will get elected and give contracts to their family memebers that allowed them to get filthy rich during the GWOT.
But that's the thing, they dont care, not if they can make a buck somewhere that isnt their backyard.

Any chances of spillover into Nagaland?

This is the most news we have heard yet!
I read today, approx. 600 Myanmar refugees fleeing on boats, arrived in Aceh province Indonesia this week.. amazing video.. Thank You..
Around 5000 refugees crossed over to India too. This war is getting out of hand. Let's keep Myanmar in our prayers.
Yes, sadly the refugees who landed in Indonesia were turned back to sea.
@anurag How is the situation in India? Are the refugees being allowed in?
@@salex546 Yes, our army is taking care of them. We are happy to help the distressed but I just hope that they don't overstay. Our country is already burdened with millions of illegal immigrants from Bangladesh. India's eastern borders are poorly defended.
@@salex546they said they rejected rohingya refugees because it wasn't the first time they come to indonesia, and after the first refugee came they created a lot of trouble to the locals and committing crimes like r*pe, stealing and they don't respect the rules of Indonesia country just like what they did to malaysia. And they escapee from there refugee camps.
Much awaited, much appreciated excellent insights as always from you.
I think when the military Junta is gone, Myanmar is going face some serious problems. With so many ethnic groups and factions there is going to be a lot of infightings for territories and power grabs. For the sake of Myanmar and its people lets hope they can unite for a peaceful solution.
True. especially with Communist China supporting the Military hunta!
A long waited video! Please keep us updated!
I don't think the Myanmar military leaders even care to notify the death of their soldiers to their famalies.
Many of their enlistees are pressed into service as young street urchins from the poorest families, and have no family or associates outside of the command structure.
Right they definitely are.
Thanks Ed. After my last comments let us hope that peace returns to the citizens ...... l so hope so !
I have watched a number of combat videos from the operations going on now. And while in the past the junta forces would put up fights (and at least seemingly lose, since it IS propaganda after all), it is considerably less obvious how much it wants to fight now. Before the anti-junta forces would often have to engage in lengthy firefights, and edge closer in base attacks, they now seem to be able overrun them in a matter of minutes.
Ed Nash, thanx a thousand, for your as usual wonderful work!
Great insights, Mr. Nash! This conflict is chronically underreported, and this large scale overview helped a lot. Better and more detailed than most of the traditional media coverage on this topic so far.
Thank you for reporting. Have an excellent day!
You too! 😁
Hope for the best for our South East Asian brothers.
This is the best news to come out of Burma since the release of Aung San Suu Kyi.

This gets you a new sub. Keep it up!
*Glory to the People of Myanmar!*
nah but fr wtf is up with big countries ignoring this
Edit: yes I am where now as to why big countries ignore this, but seriously that's messed up
They do not care.
It's an absolute mess. Which of the dozens of various groups should the West support exactly?
Supporting one and not the others, or 3/4, or whatever ratio you choose only leads to a few being stronger than the others. This leads to the strong pushing the weak aside if the junta falls, and new power grabs occurring. Except this time it would be with western weapons. This leads to people saying the West is responsible because "Look at the weapons they're using!"
Major governments don’t have concerns, they have interests. They help countries either to gain/establish/maintain a client state, or gain access to certain resources. It’s transactional. Correct me if I’m wrong, but, I don’t believe Myanmar has much in the way of natural resources or industry that is super important to the developed world, hence why the world largely doesn’t care. It sounds harsh, but, it’s the truth. It’s very sad, I feel bad for the people there.
Same reason why everyone seem to ignore places like Somalia and Yemen: what is their worth on the world stage?
@@stoneylonesome4062u are absolutely correct. If myanmar is rich in oil like Saudis or have strategic geographic importance to the west I believe things would be drastically different. That isn't the case unfortunately 😢

The country will most likely be broke up
@@dotsfrazer let's hope not
@dhirajreddy56 no but live in the country next-door
There are so many factions, it's hard to imagine a peaceful unification coming soon. And I say that with absolutely no prior insight to the political situation there.
I believe there is a unison against the Military dictatorship, and most if not all can agree they want to live in peace without being killed and oppressed.
The goal is not to unite the country. They just want the Burmese military to stop burning villages and killing civilians. Each ethnic group has their own state within the country. They each want a separate independent state without the Burmese military or government involvement.
@@codylarkhart261the irony is that the main leaders 'Karens' were the spearheads of the Myanmar genocide. That's why the rohingya are fighting for the central government now.
So I can safely assume after they will return to the power struggle and ethnic cleansing that enabled the military to seize power again.
The Chin are a separatist force with some requesting to be a part of China. I don't know man most of these are separatist forces United against a common foe but what about after they defeat them.
@@codylarkhart261 That's understandable, but what happens if they are successful in getting rid of them? Who leads etc.
Thanks for keeping us posted. A voice crying in the wilderness 8s more likely to be heard than no voice!
Thanks! Keep the news coming!
Real freedom fighters and you hear nothing about this in the media this is one of the most important conflicts on the planet and it disgusts me that the West has not helped these brave men and women fighting for their freedom!!
im from texas and i agree 100%
iam need to know their politics.....i see a red flag with a star i think communism....and if thats the case screw the government and rebs
The West should try to help more but with all the different ethnic militias fighting at once in there I imagine it’s difficult to know which one is the best to support.
@@thebusiness8212 The west can't do it right, so the west should not do wrong: we should understand that we don't have the answers or the power to free the world. And our ideas of freedom are only true in OUR westen culture.
The west should not try and bring democracy, supporting the one group of fighters that we think should win.

Very good video, nice to see that the independent armies are making gains in Burma.
The problem still is that the military junta is supported by Communist China's PLA where opium is traded for Chinese weapons! That opium, refined to Chinese brown heroin is then trafficed to the USA!
Please help them.
Thanks so much for covering it! I am now more confident that the people’s revolution will succeed, especially because you have now covered this topic!
Thanks for the indepth information!!
Something I've noticed is how the Myanmar government and military have underestimated the opposing forces, creating
hubris while while military planners do nothing more than running in place.
Ed do you think that if the central government makes a request to the CCP for direct assistance(military intervention) would they do it? India is on the western border which would make it very dangerous.
Great update thank you.
Actually this is not something new. If I am not mistaken (correct me if I am wrong), General Ne Win turned a blind eye to the Chinese using Burmese territory to attack eastern Arunachal Pradesh (then known as NEFA) during the 1962 Sino-Indian war. This is because he received support from PLA to expel the Kuomintang troops from Myanmar which immediately preceded the Sino-Indian war. India got enraged by this and never forgave Ne Win for it. Relations were very tense and only normalised after Ne Win was deposed in 1988. Relations normalised but both the EAOs and Tatmadaw continues to blackmail India with their patronage of different insurgent groups. While Tatmadaw might help India to deal with one group (let us say NSCN), they would back and support other groups which carry out attacks in India (such as the Manipuri PLA). More than China, these aspects dominate India-Myanmar relations. It gets even more complicated when you factor in EAOs. For example, it is speculated that the creation of the Arakan Army was facilitated by China in 2009 immediately after India and Myanmar announced a transport corridor to increase trade and ease the logistic constraints of the Northeastern states.
PS- If anyone wants to correct me, please be my guest.
@@sena3941 Indian Seperatist Meitei flags and national cards were seized at one of the Junta camps near the Indian border.
@@Orgruul Last year there was a deadly ambush on Assam Rifles battalion commander. Carried out by Manipuri PLA (which is a Metei group). They did not even spare his son and wife. He was sent to crack down on narcotics. Then already , there were speculations Manipuri PLA got reactivated (would be a blatant violation of bilateral agreements between Myanmar and India) by Tatamadaw probably post 2020 coup. Saying this some EAOs have also been supporting Kuki groups in Manipur. Not sure whether CDF is supporting them (doesn't seem to be the case) but certainly they are getting support from a EAO (M16s and other weapons spotted).
The war has certainly spilled over to the Indian state of Manipur with the Kukis and Meiteis at each other's throat. Hopefully they can identify the troublesome elements within their community and distance themselves away from them.
India might even support a Chinese invasion don't forget they are both senior members of BRICS
I'm sure they asked China for help.
Unfortunately for them, China is currently supporting China friendly armed groups like the MNDAA, who in their part are helping China arrest drug criminals and scammers and handing them over to the Chinese authorities.
Subbed. Good info on regional conflicts outside of US interests is harder to come by.
Brilliant reporting and insightful conclusions
about this beautiful, but very war-torn nation.
GLORY TO FREE MYANMAR!
Thank you for the update, Ed. I had seen some combat footage that suggested things were not going well for the government the last couple of months, but I had no real feel for the situation, players, or the odds.
Your point about "no Star Wars endings" is well taken.
Question: are these groups socialist/communist aligned like the Kurdish YPG? I saw those red flags and did not not know what to make of them.
Some are, but not all. Hundreds of individual groups now, some just a dozen guys, some thousands strong. All sorts of different ideologies.
Burmese guy currently living in Myanmar here. As op said, some are some aren't. there are quite a lot of groups with various strengths. Some have communist ideologies, while some (mostly People Defense Forces, born from 2021 coup) have democracy as their ideal form. Some are fighting for the freedom, or self government of their own ethnicities. If you have time, you should read about the civil war situation (which has been going on for ~60years). It is pretty interesting.
@@arararagisan1197 I hope your post-war government isn't "interesting", assuming they manage to throw the junta out.
I am also surprised the Chinese are not doing more to support the junta. My understanding was that they were a primary backer.
@@EdNashsMilitaryMatters Ugh. Reminds me of Syria circa 2011-2012. Or Lebanon. Or Russia, around 1917. I hope somebody is thinking about getting everybody to sit down NOW and hammer something out that is workable post-conflict, assuming it can be. (and assuming they maintain this momentum)
And where is China? I thought they backed the junta? Getting shy again?
If you have access to Google Translate like me, you can check out some propaganda articles from the Kokang Alliance Army and the Lao Cai government. The Kokang area borders China's Yunnan Province. People in this area usually speak Chinese. In fact, on the Chinese Internet, reports of this armed conflict have been circulating every day since October 27.
Brilliant, Ed.
I totally forgot about Myanmar. I'm kinda ashamed but it is what it is. Thank you for your work
Thanks Ed, for being the only voice I know of in the West to bring the plight of these people to the World....how would you suggest they deal with the very real problem of the army having air assets and they...don't?
他们在丛林里面捡到了大量轻武器、弹药和无人机。你可以猜一下这些武器是不是树上长出来的。你可以试着搜索一下1020卧虎山庄惨案，你应该会获得答案。
Can you explain who is funding the big players in this matter? What's the reason for conflict breaking out now?
@@olliefoxx7165 Myanmar's military government sheltered drug traffickers and fraud groups. On October 20, 2023, the armed organization of the fraud group massacred 70 Chinese people and buried 4 Chinese policemen alive, although the Chinese police identified themselves to them. But they still buried the four policemen alive without mercy. After the news was revealed, the Myanmar government refused to hand over the culprit. On October 27, 2023, the Kokang Allied Forces, which has close ties with China, claimed to have picked up a large number of advanced weapons and drones in the jungle. They issued a call to other ethnic armed forces and received all responses. On the same day, they launched a fierce attack on the Myanmar government. The decadent Myanmar government troops were retreating steadily. Four days later, the luxury villa of the leader of the fraud group who massacred Chinese and Chinese policemen was captured and the leader was executed, but Myanmar claimed that he committed suicide. Three other ringleaders involved in the crime were captured and handed over to Chinese police. Currently, the war continues. I wish the warriors of the Allied Forces a complete victory and the liberation of all Burmese people! !
@@olliefoxx7165the big players aren't really receiving much support besides the junta itself. Russia is firmly allied with the military and sells them weapons, the Chinese keep good relationships with most players but are leaning further towards the military, and the US has sanctioned the military and sends humanitarian aid and nice words to the country, but doesn't do much else.
An awesome report, thank we your support of truth
Thanks
Hopefully once democracy is restored in Myanmar. The Myanmar current military will be abolished and be reborn anew, which are headed by these militia leadership who fought for democracy.
Thank God !! The people must rule , democracy fight must go on
Great reporting !
The reason why they’ve been in power for so long is because of division in the ethnic groups. While one group is fighting, another one is in ceasefire. If all the ethnic groups unite and attack at the same time, they would never stand a chance.
Thanks for reporting this lesser know fight for freedom.
Great to see someone finally at least open the question of post junta. ASSK may be able to calm the waters -if she lives that long and has the strength.
May Myanmar be peaceful soon🙏🕊️✌️✌️✌️ with leaders' negotiations!!!
Yo Ed love your stuff, just a heads up the playlist order for The Long War is completely jumbled right now
Thanks, I'll have a look
this is so brave and amazing in a country were the government has there boot on the throat of the people. Are there any of the groups organized so they may receive international funds say viva Pay pal, Google pay, visa or a simple post box ??!!. Ed This is the first I came across your feed. Thank you.
The actions of the anti government forces are supported by the Chinese government, from intelligence, weapons, equipment, drones to coordinated actions of anti government forces in various regions, all of which are supported behind the scenes by the Chinese government. The target of the attack is the Burmese military government.
Otherwise, where do you think the rebels got their weapons from? Are weapons and drones growing from trees?
Thank you bro ❤❤❤❤
Hey Mr Nash I would like to also do some humanitarian work in the area and was wondering if you had a network I could get connected to.

What an excellent series and much needed review for us with only a peripheral understanding of this conflict. Would this be an opportunity for regional powers like China, India, and others to put aside any competition (as much that is possible) and broker a settlement amongst the various groups?

They try to hide the truth a war going on there they a a lot of war going there Myanmar killing so many people
Amazing that this is both comprehensive and at the same time just an overview. May the people of Myanmar find freedom, peace, and stability in the near future.
I realize a “Star Warsian” ending is far-fetched but many nations were forged when disparate elements had to unite to defeat a common enemy. Perhaps it’s naïve to imagine that these days but I wouldn’t completely dismiss the idea.
Thank you for News 📰 ❤🎉
I wouldn't hold my breath but I can always be surprised
Godspeed to those fighting for freedom in Myanmar. Everyone is with you.
Excellent stuff Ed, I did some relief work with a group of displaced Rohingya refugees last week. They echo similar sentiments.. end of the current junta won't necessarily mean ethnic conflicts will stop.. i fear a real Balkanisation in Burma soon.
I was saddened to watch Australian's donate money for ambulances in Ukraine while these guys are using 3d printed weapons and elephants for logistical support. Australian main stream media just ignores what is happening in our region.
Amen brother. I'm increasingly saddened by the mindless corporate drudgery of our government. The spin is getting absurdly shallow ..... yet nobody gives a toss ...... oh, gotta go! There's a sale on at my fave shop, concert tickets are going live, and I've got some sweet updates for the gram of what I had for lunch! Then I'm signing a digital petition to end discrimination against cashmere cats ..... their values are under-represented.
SHAME on AUSTRALIA Hypocrites allowing all junta families to reside in Aussie Atrocities WORLD in Australia be AWARE the WORLD is wat ching
Lots of Woke shit in our administration as well 😢
Bruh, apostrophes don't make words plural.
Is it possible that both Ukraine and the Burmese Rebels are fighting for a worthy cause? Doesn’t it make sense that Australia would be more supportive to keeping Europe from being over run by fascist Russian armies and influence? Australia is a European based nation after all. Seems like you’ve barely read a history book in your life and are being heavily influenced by the CCP/Russian propaganda machine.
I feel bad for all but the Elites. I pray they respect one another's Tribes and set realistic borders.
Godbless people defence force. I am indian from mizoram
Have they captured any aircraft/bases? If they have, do they have the means to utilize them?
They only attack on remote regions, none of them have ability to attack Central regions
As heartening as it is to hear all this, I will only rest easy once the cities fall or those garrisons there begin to surrender.
Thank You Sir for reporting this. Heard a very troubling rumour that there was a downed MIG jet by a non Burmese pilot maybe little green man...
Very good news for the Military Industrial Complex .
Seems everywhere is having issues, Im seriously more concerned about ours right here at home. Wish All yall the best non the less!.🇺🇸✌🏻🍻
Great report gathering, this is such a challenging conflict to follow. Currently the international community cannot support many of these groups at this time because of their involvement in the international drug trade.
They ALL are in the drug trade, the military junta, the rebels and the Chinese PLA who provides the weapons to the military!
OH YEAH YEAH OH YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH EYAH OH YEAH YAH OH YAYAYAYAYA.
I feel lucky I was able to visit on 2019 right before Covid and the current civil war
A few weeks ago, a Myanmar worker said that he had to send 20% of his income to the Myanmar government or his passport will be terminated. I believe it's relating to war effort.
It's true . Junta government need more money to buy ammos and fuels. And a neighboring big second super power country is selling it.

Some kind of Makeshift RPG launcher ( but not completely elaborate)
Looks like a type 78 Chinese recoiless rifle.
