In the battle for Bhamo, Kachin State, the KIA is fighting hard almost every day as it has lost some positions and is launching a counterattack. The military has managed to retake some of the artillery and airfields in Bhamo, but the KIA has been unable to advance due to the counterattack.
The same is true in Kyaukpyu, Rakhine State. The military commission is re-enforcing the seaborne offensive and is retaking the positions they lost. The AA is also resisting relentlessly, so the fighting is fierce and the military has suffered hundreds of casualties. In Bhamo and Kyaukpyu, both sides have been unable to advance and the fighting will continue for a long time.
