It is reported that the KNU and allied revolutionary groups that were blocking the Aung Zeya line of the Military Commission on the Asia Road on Daw Na Mountain near Myawaddy have retreated. Since September 1, the Military Commission has announced that it will march on Myawaddy in ninety days and has returned to the Daw Na Mountain with a large force. The fighting around the area has been very intense in recent days. We only know that the military lines that advanced in the early days have been repeatedly pushed back. The reason for the sudden withdrawal of the groups blocking the Aung Zeya line is not clear. If they withdraw from there, the revolutionary forces may lose control of the Asia Road.
