The AA army is expected to take over the western military headquarters of Ann soon. The entire city of Ann has been captured, and only the Western Military Command compound is left to be captured. The military rebels are still resisting in that area with air support. The military council is still sending a large number of reinforcements to Ann from Magway Region. These reinforcements must be prevented from reaching Ann by the AA and the revolutionaries in Magway Region.
In addition, the AA has also captured Taunggyi, which is being attacked simultaneously, and is continuing to attack the remaining military headquarters outside the city. By the end of this month, at least one of the two cities of Ann and Taunggyi, which are important communication points with the mainland, is expected to fall into the hands of the AA.
