when it comes to what the knu are doing, they have been patrolling some of this area, they have beenin terms of the bigger picture, the knu are the biggest supporters of the civil defence movement within myanmar. what you are seeing in the towns and cities right across myanmar, in what the knu have dealt with for decades, the kind of brutal military, and when it comes to how this fits into the overall picture, the knu are thought to be protecting many members of the civil defence movements, some activists, and we understand that there is also renewed fighting within the north and other parts where ethnic armed organisations are deciding to take on the tatmadaw, take on myanmar�*s military. now, this is a very strong military, but it does mean that they are now dispersed on many fronts. they are trying to disperse the protests that are going on within the cities and towns, and also they are renewing this fighting between ethnic armed organisations notjust here, but further in the north. in terms of where this goes, we will have to see. there is a certain fear that if the tatmadaw take

it looks like the knu has taken the post.tinued fighting in karen state over the past month. often the myanmar military, who are defending what the karen national unionists say are encroachments, they believe the army has expanded its footprint under the cover of a nine—year—old ceasefire and is trying to hold onto that and the myanmar military has been using air power, including ground attack aircraft. it has been bombing villages from the air and has been using artillery as well, with thousands of people displaced. so this is an ongoing conflict and it is linked in to the larger conflict in myanmar because the karen national union has been the stronger supporter among the ethnic armies of the civilian opposition. it is sheltering we think maybe 2000 people who fled from the cities, so when the myanmar military goes after them they have that in mind as well. the usjustice department has ordered an investigation into the louisville police department in kentucky, following the fatal shooting of breonna taylor during a police r
