In a significant development, an ethnic armed group in Myanmar's Rakhine state, the Arakan Army (AA), has declared control over Paletwa, a crucial port town on the Kaladan River bordering India and Bangladesh.
This marks another setback for the military government, which is already grappling with multiple insurgencies across the country.
The ongoing conflict involves anti-junta groups, supported by a pro-democracy parallel government, seizing control of military installations and towns, posing a substantial challenge to the junta since its coup in 2021.
