it's part of what we've seen is kind of a stepped up confrontation between ethnic armies and the tatmadaw particularly in korean ethnic held areas like we're seeing there and as you mentioned foley this was an area that we've seen airstrikes over the last several weeks in that we've seen counter attacks by the ethnic armies against the tatmadaw positions like we did earlier today now what this did is what it does now is really kind of raises the tension in that area and what we might see coming in the next couple of days is maybe retaliating from the tatmadaw and what we could possibly see is more refugees coming across the river like we saw as you said fairly in the last couple weeks and this is coming as scott as agenda has said that they were going to consider some of the demands made at the s.a.n. summit on saturday how might this attack impact or affect the stats. it could impact that you know they they say that the joint to issued a statement saying that they will positively entertain as some of the ideas that were presented of this meeting on saturday it's a bit of a setback in the

of a series of attacks from both sides over the last several weeks between the cane you and the tatmadaw that's the myanmar army we know that there are airstrikes as you mentioned rob there air strikes several weeks ago that sent people across the border into thailand to seek refuge and to seek medical attention the thai officials helped them but then said it was safe for them to go back what's interesting too now is the provinces that this side of the border if you will from where this this attack happened and official here on this side of the border in that province said that there was one who was injured in this early morning actually pre-dawn attack that kind of carried into the early morning hours today on tuesday they say one was injured but gave no more not much more information beyond that we have spoken to the spokesman for the ministry of foreign affairs here in thailand and he has said that they're monitoring the situation very closely and obviously keeping a very keen eye on if there's any impact on the side of the border so when you look back over the last several weeks the

even before sunrise and that was an attack on this outpost this myanmar army locally known as the tatmadaw outpost the can you use small arms and it appears as some mortars there and then what they said what they did is they overran this outpost and then they burnt it to the ground and now what this is an indication of is the uptick in violence we've seen between the cain knew and its forces ethnic army forces there in the caribbean area controlled area against the tatmadaw now this has been going on you know it's really kind of kicked up since the coup on february 1st but this is a fight that's been going on for decades but obviously right now it can you has thrown their support behind the protest movement that is against the coup that is against the junk that now rules myanmar they've joined other ethnic armies and other ethnic groups who have said also that they are supporting the the protest movement and actually even talked about a national unity government being part of that and the possibly an army beyond that so what this is is a sin a small attack that was a symbol i guess that so

ground now as you mentioned this is an area that has seen an increase in airstrikes also from the tatmadaw from the me in the army over the last several weeks and that it prompted a few weeks ago prompted people to cross the river that serves as the border in this area around the province in thailand to cross the river to seek refuge on this side of the border here in thailand and medical attention we saw that a couple of weeks ago now this could be the case and use retaliation for that for those airstrikes but it's you know it's a very tenuous situation there because they can you have supported this national union government. formed by politicians. members of parliament kicked out by the joint they have joined that along with other ethnic army so there's been this growing concern about the potential of a civil war in myanmar with these ethnic armies now when you look at myanmar there are about 2 dozen ethnic armies the k. and you of the k.l.a. have been the most active over the last several weeks and we're seeing that again just in the early morning hours here rob scott thanks very much a

and you the korean national unions armed factions and of the tatmadaw that's the myanmar army this is kind of been really kind of turned up since the coup back in february 1st and what's interesting about this one though is these images we're seeing come out because it was right on the border with thailand there have been videos posted to social media that shows exactly what was happening there is some video that shows predawn hours still dark some of gunfire and then after the sunrise you can see the outpost was in fact burning we've been speaking with some thai officials ministry of foreign affairs spokesman saying that they are closely monitoring the situation and obviously if there's going to be any impact particularly if there's going to be any impact on the side of the border zone province official is being quoted as saying that one was injured during this attack . what protesters in myanmar have say some of their largest demonstrations and breaks a 100 stage a flash mob in young dawn gathering with blinds and sign but dispersing quickly to avoid a police crackdown that calling

envoy laid out the extent of the violence seen since the start of february in the 2 months since the tatmadaw or late coup prevented the democratically elected assembly from forming on the 1st of february nearly 600 protesters have been killed and 3000 people detained the military's violence against peaceful protesters is becoming increasingly systematic lethal and widespread in the ethnic states there is renewed conflict including military as strikes leaving dozens dead and thousands displaced. the u.n. envoy for me on mas arrived in bangkok with hopes of talking to the ruling generals who are refusing to meet up on thursday the u.s. imposed sanctions on myanmar as mainstage turned gem company that's an important source of income for the generals meanwhile there are reports of intense fighting in the country as security forces crack down on protesters there young go on rescue workers say that at least 4 people have been killed in the southern city of. but local media reports say the death toll could be higher rights groups of recorded $614.00 civilian deaths since the military took part in a

speak to the generals she wants to start a dialogue but she tweeted on her arrival i regret that the tatmadaw that's the military in myanmar answered me yes they they're not ready to receive me i'm ready for dialogue and certainly that's something that's supported by the whole security council they say that her work is vital and she should be allowed in for dialogue i'm also hearing that there is quite a lot of faith being put by the security council right now in diplomacy by the assy and countries and what we're hearing is that there is likely to be an assay an leaders summit of all the. countries and the dates i'm hearing are probably about 2 weeks from now they're trying to work on a meeting in jakarta and they're hoping that the assy and style of quark diplomacy will persuade the generals that their current path is a path that they should not continue on i'm also hearing from diplomats on the security council that they feel it's likely they're going to have to try and pull a cake the generals in some way so you're hearing in this meeting from those representing the democratically elected

ethnic groups also have their own armies that have been who have been fighting the central army the tatmadaw in myanmar for decades as well so this is their kind of next step i guess the best way to put it so they can formalize this this parallel government this national unity government and hope that they'll get national recognition to national recognition and they can use that as political leverage but again you know the protest movement will most likely continue the way it has been it has to be good news for them too because this means there's going to be a more formulated opposition and hopefully they'll get international recognition of this this new government that they have formed parallel government that they have formed case that bring us the latest from bangkok thank you scott. police in the united states are facing more furious protests this time over the fatal she scene of a 13 year old latino boy the incident happened last month but the newly released video from the chicago police department appears to show adam toledo turns officers with his hands in the air before he was shot c

several weeks about a month now and that is these stepped up attacks by the quay and you forces on tatmadaw the military in myanmar as it's known positions within their held area the korean held area so there is a stepped up attack and that works kind of seeing the back and forth and obviously as a result when violence like this escalates people are sent fleeing and that's exactly what we're seeing as you mentioned like we saw about a month ago those who are in the areas of the where these air attacks have taken place started to flee toward the border and now we know as you said at least according to a korean organization in myanmar saying that about 9000 they say have gathered toward the thai border having crossed just yet because they're trying to get out of the these air attacks that have really stepped up since we saw that brazen early morning attack along a check at an outpost of myanmar army outpost right along the border with thailand could even see this attack happening from the thai side of the border rob let's talk more about the strikes and is this presumably all 'd wrapped up in

the outpost was a signal from the current national union to me and mars army locally known as the tatmadaw and this shows that we have a plan in our area to diminish your territory take over more what we say is accurate or. but also do it in a moment that discredits the power of the capital which gives a symbolic boost i think to a broader nationwide. resistance against against the military so it's it's a lot of different things all wrapped up together he went on to say that a strong retaliate is expected airstrikes from the military on current held territory have increased over the last few weeks at one point sending hundreds across the border into thailand seeking refuge and medical attention 24000 people have been displaced since late last month according to korean groups. also on tuesday the military justice said it would consider suggestions on how to end the crisis in myanmar made by the southeast asia regional bloc in a saturday meeting the announcement could be viewed as a setback since leaders said a consensus was already reached with the joint on steps to end the violence. some p

airstrikes as we've seen in korean territory the current national union really is is it's a sign from the tatmadaw that they're trying to send a signal that they are not going to sit back and allow the ethnic groups to form some kind of alliance against them and the concern is that we'll see ground troops another kind of offensive potentially. large scale fighting in some of the ethnic areas and we've already seen the use of the use of air strikes this is an escalation from the military side the concern i think for the military will be that they could see themselves opened up on many different fronts and that is really is not just a concern as you say for the military but also for the entire populations i said before so there are a very deep concerns i think the military may not have predicted such a unified potentially unified response against the top model and this crew is this going to then spur the international community to do more about the situation in myanmar i mean we heard from the u.n. special envoy he's urging the security council to consider potentially significant action how likely i

pockets of individuals taking up arms now of course their arms are no match with the firepower of the tatmadaw but still we are seeing people to hear the arms of the other very worrying development is that ethnic armed groups in certain regions of we are now are such as a christian shan and clean streets are also starting to 9 concerts which again you know sets the stage for a much more explosives the church of course again i want to ask you more about that because those armed groups the ethnic enclaves have said that they're going to unify to fight the regime and as you say we are seeing those pockets of resistance imagine now what is your message to them. our message 1st of all is to the military to stop slaughtering people they have a responsibility to protect their own population and they need to stop are the key messages to the international community there are many states and many businesses in fact which have a lot of influence in the matter the have leverage that they can use whether this is diplomatic political or economic pressure on the military they need to use this net ridge and t
