i bid expanded, you're welcome to do the news aisha. i'm glad you could join us and a hunter rebels in me, and i'll have taken control of some boulder outpost with india. after forcing me in the army, so just to flee, dozens of troops crossed over to india to escape attacks by rebels. the violence in june states on the border with india is the latest of to new front. that rebels have opened the games, the one to the other is invo kind state. a joint coalition of rebels began a new offensive against me and my army in october, beginning in northern shan state. on the border with china. or the un now say is more than 200000 people have been displaced due to the fighting. it's also the most serious challenge to the whole task. since it as you power, you know, cool in 2021. serious enough for trying not to call for

a stop to the fighting. and for the president of me and not to one of the country could be at risk of breaking apart. gunshots, ringed out of the border between me and mode, and india as rebels and me and more fights, the military hooked up thousands of people, a fleeting bouquet of and crossing over into india. my among them, soldiers from me and mars military hometown. many soldiers of surrendering to meet around state police. others, i've seen the show and got to us for the phone and they say we have to do more work to work. i mean, force cookies, some rightful is that the, the, the, the smaller we still got. so far

from the another one is also in the 0 on the didn't me and most the groups have been gaining ground since october. they've taken control of several towns and security outsourced in an effort to over throw the military hotel. but i kind of okay, i believe i can hear from them in more national democratic aligns ami release this footage, showing what they say is a tank abandoned by the hotel and you know, and a valuable stockpile of weapons. now, in the possession my uncle, to me in march condo scheme to fall within 2021 in a cool. but it's authority hasn't never been challenged before. at this level, officials and neighboring china say they are worried about this conflict. these supplies in the region. well, they go to,

we are highly concerned about the conflict in northern mia mart. encourage all parties in myanmar to immediately cease fire and stop fighting and insure security and stability along the china myanmar border. for now, fighters on both sides look set to continue to hold our leaders saying they will hit back the rebels, the tillman to march on and with the country of its dictatorship and the, joining me for more from london is mark farm. and who's director of the interior of belmont campaign, u. k. mr. finding a these rebel attacks against them in my military. would you call these at turning point in the fight to restore democracy in the country? we've got to certainly have a lot of people in my seeing we, it's quite unprecedented to see one very different ethnic is coming together

to launch these joint operations against the middle tree and also to have such a record success. and that has encouraged all of the ethnic organizations, arms groups, and some of what's called a pdf people who's defense forces, which people in the country have sets up arms groups to resist the military. i'm so raising increase the tax on military outposts in time state on the west by the south. think of any state and the military so far seem incapable of counseling. these leave offense, but not all of these rubber groups literally on the same page because they have, for the ministry for yes, primarily for autonomy in their respective regions. is that still the aim or is it the why the goal of a starting democracy demand ma? well, i think what we've seen and most of them have been committed for a long time to federalism to, to having more autonomy balances and independence. um,

but they recognize that they need to obtain across the excitable states for that to happen because of the pressure they've been on the, from the, on these military for so long. so they've mostly have to focus on their own areas of control to try to maintain those areas to the running their own. the administrative sions. what's changed now in the last year is we've seen them coming on the offensive and taking mall, which i've a tree from the bodies mother tree. and now in the past 2 weeks is massive escalation in shawn states in the east. where on the lines of 3, yes, they come to guys. ations have managed to take thousands and thousands of military outposts and some significant towns as well. what has the impact to being of this reason fighting on civilians in these border towns or what we've seen more than 50000 people just based already in shawn state. the truth maker is probably higher

than that, but it's difficult to verify because of the conflict ends and the difficulties in getting access. the people are taking shelter any way they can. some people are displaced in junko summit, going to other towns and villages. i know easily, a humanitarian prices throughout the country now because whether the 2000000 people have been forced to flee that homes since the military can. in the beginning of 2021, i have a large number of those, the international community, the un agencies and others have no access to be able to reach them. china here, once the fighting to stop and even sent a senior official to meet the what uh, what is china's interest here as well? china has significant economic interests and it has in this area, there is a, an important pipeline varies minding interest that they have. and they want some

form of stability, but they've been in china is becoming more and more impatient with the let me spell it to you over this scam sense has been gone along the line. but china border with thousands of chinese citizens that i've been pushed into effective slavery. i'm trying has been cooling for action on these for a long time now. and when my military failed to take action. so it seems that having lost patience, the chinese authorities have given these ethnic organizations on the board to the go ahead to go ahead with the offensive. so i, china, is making a careful game on the one hand, this maintaining itself support and the on supplies and thousands to the military. but at the same time it's, it's also aging its bets. and at the end of the day, a week, my military suits trying his purposes in some ways as long as there's not too much instability in refugees going across the board. that because china can get

a better deal with china, has more influence. and the military become more depends. it's on the regular leave of the for the time being thanks so much for joining us today. i'm not finding that director of the in general, but my campaign u. k. thanks very much. i thank you. a much anticipated meeting in san francisco pain chinese president children being and is your account about joe biden. we'd be watched carefully by a particular group of people in the u. k. pro democracy activists from hong kong files and slides to the u. k. a following badging is cracked down on democratic rights in the u. k. b as hong kong, as continue to waste the hopes for democracy back home. although we don't go from the x on the non den to now fights the democracy back home.
