Communist Army to Conduct 34-hour Live-fire Exercise on China-Myanmar Border
The Southern Theater Command of the Communist Army has announced that it will conduct a 34-hour live-fire exercise on the China-Myanmar border, starting at 8 a.m. on April 2. This comes following reports of intense fighting between the Kachin Independence Army and Myanmar government forces, with the Kachin Independence Army making significant gains near the border.
According to the announcement, the exercise will take place at various locations along the border, including Tuanjie Village, Xima Town, Yingjiang County, Gurika Village, Nongzhang Town, Yingjiang County, and Mowo Village, Longba Town, Longchuan County, among others. The exercise will cover a significant stretch of the border, with a focus on the Kachin State in Myanmar.
The Kachin Independence Army and its allies have reportedly captured several Myanmar military outposts in Kachin State, including the town of Lwegel, a key trade gateway between Myanmar and China. The Kachin Independence Army has been using advanced weaponry, including US Army equipment, in their fight against the Myanmar government forces.
The Communist Army’s decision to conduct a large-scale exercise near the border reflects the seriousness of the situation. The Kachin Independence Army’s advances have caught the attention of not just the Myanmar government, but also neighboring countries like China.
It is clear that the Kachin Independence Army is a formidable force that cannot be underestimated. Their recent successes have raised concerns among regional powers, including the Chinese Communist Party. As the situation continues to escalate, it remains to be seen how the conflict will unfold and what impact it will have on the region.
