- In the jungles of southeastern Myanmar's Dawna Hills, rebels from an armed ethnic group are fighting to hold back columns of reinforcements sent by the country's ruling junta to try to reclaim Myawaddy, a critical trading outpost on the Thai border.
Some of these are areas that the junta will look to retake or hold on to before the rains arrive, even as the rebels seek to maintain their momentum, said Zachary Abuza, a professor at the U.S. National War College and a specialist on Southeast Asia. Stretched thin across frontier territories that are slipping out of its grip, the junta may look to consolidate resources and prioritise key areas, they said.'WRITING IS ON THE WALL'
"The writing is on the wall," Thitinan said, pointing to the battlefield losses, emboldened resistance and lack of popular support. The 793-km Myanmar-China Gas Pipeline also traverses Ann, with a major pump station located near the town, which analysts say the military will do everything to hold.
