It has been exactly two months since Operation 1027 Part 2. During these two months, the joint revolutionary forces may have captured 8 more cities. It’s like taking over one city a week. Among those eight cities, major regional military headquarters such as Lashio were included. In addition, Myanmar’s second-largest city, Mandalay, may well be threatened. From the fact that it was still a long way until the middle of this year for the revolutionary groups to reach the city of Mandalay, it has now become a situation where they can attack Mandalay at any time. These are the progress of Shan Man operations.
In addition, in Rakhine state in the west of the country, the AA army is attacking the military council without stopping. The fighting has spread from northern to southern Rakhine State. It might well have threatened Ann, the regional military headquarters. Experts are predicting that by the end of this year, the entire Rakhine State will fall under AA.
In northern Kachin state, the KIA’s offensive is gaining success. KIA troops are penetrating the vicinity of Myitkyina, the capital city. The second military council to miss is the regional military headquarters, one of the two, the northern and the western.
