Myanmar’s military is stepping up attacks on rebel strongholds, as opposition to it expands from street protesters to fighters in the semi-autonomous ethnic regions.
Rebels are now targeting Myanmar army positions.
Al Jazeera’s Scott Heidler explains the history of the minority ethnic groups and their role in the movement against the military, which seized power in a February coup.

- Post Date:
The People of Myanmar request No Fly Zone In Myanmar becoz Myanmar Military terrorists are attacking wuth air strikes on Unarmed Civillians villages.
Hope that the christian and muslim minorities manage to whip out those pagan governor troops.
The people should support the rebels & discourage anyone joining the army. The myanmar military are terrorrising the people when they should be protecting them & their country.
Wrong title Myanmar Junta Army Air Strike to Ethnic Stronghold and civilians villages WTF title
The US, most powerful military force were defeated by the Vietnamese.
350 to 500 thousand troops with air power will be defeated.
The anti Junta forces needed arms, but they will get them from the military. No need Russian or Chinese arms.
Victory to the armed Revolution.
but you didnt defeat forest gump that was a joke
Myanmar is now Under japanese invasion the red flag with sun is a symbol of japan
What r u talking abou? That is just army being controlled by chinese communist gov’t so they can take control of the region… That is their imperialist plan to take over himalaya and SEA including taiwan
Ahh yes the Karen army the most unbeatable fighting force in this world
They’ll get to talk to the army manager ( its a joke)
Ah yes, the Karen Rainbow Bolshevik Army funded by IMF and Soros.
@Rudol von Stroheim Are you joking? They fight against Socialist Republic of the Union of Burma
@DeereMies22 They dropped “Socialist” a long time ago. Also, not all socialists are bad. Its just the Marxists who are filthy scum
I’m sorry, but I can’t support a group of Karens
Because of Russia and china UN cannot do nathong useless UN and biden 😡😡
what do you want US to do go ask UK for some help
So if the ethnic rebel groups succeeded in overthrowing the junta, Myanmar will be a confederacy?
Karen army never give up
😂😂😂
Asking for the Manager
No mercy for protesters…..
We Indian supports mayanmar people. I don’t know why our government hesitating for open support but I ensure you guys we and our public supports you.
We have business prospects in Rakhaine. We Don’t care who is in power or who kills whom.
Really great seeing citizens staying and fighting for their country rather than run and let their country die.
what’s with this war going on?
The West needs to realise this is the End Game of multiracialism in thier countries. People do not mix well.
no thats bs
@Ramen Lover what do you call this… ethnic conflict, ffs man, wake up.
@Harold Flite no i call it going against your own people
75k vs 350k. I hope the rebels can learn some ideas from the Vietnamese war. Wishing you all the best! Hope some rohinya can come back to fight for their homeland to grow more in the rebel forces.
🤣👍👍👍🤣
I think we can stop calling them Military.
Gona be ok
FOREIGN GOVERNMENTS PAID THE FAUX MYANMAR LEADER TO DESTABILIZE THE COUNTRY SO THEY COULD PILLIAGE IT IN THE AFTERMATH OF WAR. RUSSIA AND CHINA ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS. THE UN SHOULD STEP IN. THE EU IS HOLDING BACK. BETWEEN RUSSIA AND CHINA, SPECIFICALLY, BUT ALSO EVERY OTHER NATION, THOSE WHO DO NOT SUPPORT THE REBELS AFTER THE MILITARY STARTED GUNNING DOWN CHILDREN ARE MORALLY INFERIOR AND DO NOT DESERVE THE REIGNS OF POWER. A WORLDWIFE REVOLT IS THE ONLY SOLUTION: CONTINUE TO PROTEST AGAINST EVERY NATION, ESPECIALLY CHINA, RUSSIA, AND THE EU COUNTRIES, UNTIL THEY STOP SUPPORTING THE AUTHORITARIAN MURDER OF CHILDREN!
Internasional citizen support for Myanmar Civilization for democration
Hope justice will be as achieve sooner that lives Will not be wasted coz of that ambitious few that thinks of ONLY their own welfare…..
Kill them all military
Kill first all generals
Democracy Vs Tyranny – Good Vs Evil
Support The Armed Rebels
Long life aljazira
Well first there will be a civil war between the military and the rebel groups, the rebels will win and then start killing each other once they win
Historically
So like…imagine being part of the army and you care more about the money the 2$ a month that you get paid instead of caring about your country and the people.
good job military. Time to blow up some rebel scums.
Good,,finish those Western dogs
*You’ll never understand the value of freedom until you have to fight for it.*
Yes that true
You are probably a westerner who’s country did a lot of imperialism which lead to people not having freedom
@YeahOkBuddy No I’m from North Korea 😀
@YeahOkBuddy Actually,he is right.Burmese people are fighting for true democracy and freedom without western helps.
@Capt. Rob Atkinson based
Hi
No fly zone, please.
yeah defeat the army
75,000 rebel army vs 350,000 Junta army? Plus, the junta has many more armaments, artillery, tanks, air power, etc. So many will die. I hope this ends soon.
Myanmar Army are getting more like the CCP everyday
Myanmar Army saving world from Drugs
If the un and us did nothing war will be soon so act
Where are the Rohingya?? They sitting at home wearing there dresses?? They need to fight now all rebels need to fight together.
Good for y’all, all the citizens joining rebel armies. Destroy and oust that murderous sociopathic military dictatorship that’s in control there
The world is raping it self
KNU is not a rebel group. KNU represents Myanmar people’s desire for democracy.
Al Jazeera is the anti-democracy media isn’t it?
Hit those Generals who are giving orders. And also attacked their airforce base and destroy their fighter jets
Why aren’t they all illegal combatants?
Oh they aren’t fighting the Americans ha?
✌️
its bad for the millitary!!! protester turning into a rebel it means they are totally upset!! there not happy for the millitary goverment!! thats why they do this!! i hope that the millitary goverment can found a better sollution or way to stop this but not in the way of war or hurting each other physically!!
1. UN is useless
2. U.S.A is nothing and useless
Please sunlender Myanmar government freedom to Myanmar people
myanmar is war interior , so they can resolve of thew problem for happening for moment,
depond on themselves to helping
May be they are getting punishment from Allah
Aljazeera ! Change the wrong caption. It must be “People Army was attacked by Rebel (Terriost Junta)”.All of the Ethnic Army such as KNU ,KIA ,AA had been fighting against the for freedom .They represent the people of Myanmar as well as Fedral union.Keep going brothers! Our victory is coming soon.We must win this revolution.
Go and fight for freedom. Don’t give up. The military are murderers
Fighting for decades??? This tell me how much our media cover global crisis
O
Total absurdity. If the rebel groups wants united Myanmar with greater autonomy then, the armed struggle is purely against the State is terrorism. Issues pertaining to Constitutional crisis can’t be tutored by terrorism.
Love🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵
😢😢😢😢
By ‘Crackdown’, U mean heavily armed police & millitary forces shooting unarmed civilians like chickens?
NO, It’s Mass murder
Rambo 4
i tell u what this is where either america or communist russia gonna inject their influence by assisting weaponry into either sides. another afghanistan will soon be reborn there unfortunately.
Time for CIA, MI6 to provide anti-aircraft systems
Don’t use rebel word for Myanmar armed groups KIA , KNU. They are attacking for Myanmar people and Federal Democracy. You must also use terrorists group f instead of military group because of the military junta terrorists members acting like the evilest terrorists. We (Myanmar People) know this media group support directly to the Myanmar military terrorists group by lobbying for the military terrorists group for money.
What is really happening is the Fake News are promoting chaos and destruction.
Support Myanmar democracy 🇰🇷🇲🇲
All supported for years by U.S.A.I.D to counter China
Where do these rebels get the money and weapons from through out the world all rebel groups are supplied weapons by whom .
Myanmar coup is done with the help of china
Myanmar souldiers must b blind..they can’t see how childrens,mom,dad, grandfather, grandmother n all those r suffering
What do you expect from a half class Drug addict so called Army? Z stone YABA Heroine, the level of Myanmar Army.
I hope and pray that Younger generation will never give up untill they are set Free from Military dictatorship and back into Democratic Governance.
STAY STRONG 💪🏾 fellow Burmese Brothers and sisters ❤️❤️❤️
Devils…
Please do not use “rebel” to call the ethnic armed organizations. Instead, use EAOs. They are fighting for their freedoms and they want a federal democracy in Myanmar. KNLA, KIA, RCSS, etc. have started working together with National Unity Government of Myanmar. The Myanmar’s military no longer represent the people of Myanmar after it staged an illegitimate coup against the elected civilian government of Myanmar.
Remember God loves you so much that he sent his son to die for our sins , then he rose again in 3 days ,so that we can have everlasting life please repent and get baptized in the name of the Father Son and Holy Ghost✔️
no ones financing yet, common US finance the rebels lol
Civil war is coming so soon……
Love to all freedom fighter in myanmar. Burmese dictatorship cant respect the ethnic culture and land. They want to take everything from us but we wont let them. Burmese land isnt big as you think. The map on myanmar is many countries on it but you cant find the country name because british gave the country to burmese only. We wont let them take ethnic lands.
Are you kidding me. Myanmar military are doing great. We are save and good health because of military .They are protecting us from evil Aung San Su Kyi. Thank Myanmar military
well KIA just took down a helicopter lmao. Tatmadaw won’t last long at this rate. Without air superiority, they are just a poorly organized and trained army.
Myanmar never have military. NOW we have to try real military for myanmar.
Cease fire? They need to increase fire, they need to kill the Junta if they care for their home.
Final Boss “The Myanmar Military” Also Know As The Sleeping Giant
They Want To Talk To The Manager Of The Myanmar Military
Don’t use rebel again.
They pay for us,They do for their Justice. We(Burmese)are support all them.
🖕🏻🇲🇲💩
Start of a civil war folks!
Min Aung Hlaing would Like to be the President of Myanmar but what he Actually became was a Serial Killer!!!
Senior General Thein Sein and Than Shwe are Pulling the Strings from behind from Nay Pyi Taw.
This Military Coup was Than Shwe’s Master Plan!!!
Arrest this Idiot Monk Killer Than Shwe!!!
Than Shwe was the One who has ordered to Kill a lot of Monks in 2007!!!

GOD OF MERCY AND COMPASSION 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🖤🖤🖤
0:43 ” i shoot you behind the tree”
Based!! Get those femboys!
Stop calling these Ethnic Minorities as rebels who stand up to protect the civilians and fighting for their self determination and freedom for years. The one you should call rebel is the brutal Burmese army who killed every innocent.
Rephrase the title to , “Terrorists military attacks the base of freedom fighters”
Support Tribal armed group
based
Too many “Karens” in Myanmar
Where is Rambo?
