When Myanmar’s military regime ended its flirtation with the representative government in February 2021, it marked the moment by killing several hundred anti-coup protesters and detaining thousands more – including Aung San Suu Kyi, the Nobel Prize-winning leader of the National League for Democracy.
So now some activists are taking a more aggressive approach to the Tatmadaw, as the country’s armed forces are known. They have been heading to remote jungle regions to seek support from armed ethnic organisations, which have been waging their own on-off war with the Myanmar military leaders for decades.

Omg 12:40 when they sing the song TT…. Lets be strong my brothers and sisters
Great commentary btw.
Stay strong sis. Where are you from?
This would make a pretty good setting for a far cry game
These kids fell into ideological trap laid by the West. Although no one supports the coup, there are things that you have to let it play out like the invisible hand. More resistance only results a in longer toil returning to natural stabilizations. This is exactly what the political West wish to see in other countries.
The more you do, the longer and more pains everyone will suffers. Your ‘heroic’ hardship ends up as a disservice to the community.
Haw mach is going to cost
Will say a prayer for them!
They only care about a budda doll!
Do you all notice that China support of this regime.
And russia because they want to sell weapons to the military regime
I hope it really stays secret they should really move from time to time
Where are you guys when rohingya get kill everyday ??
Did you do a protest ? Noo
Did you fight with your guns? Noo
And now looks what happens, after your millitary shoot at you, you seek help from the ethnic community. Ironic isn’t it
Well when those are happening there is stability and democracy. I’m not saying that rohingyas aren’t important. I’m just saying that when it was happening it is not that big of a problem for us Burmese people.
When military coups started there’s a internet blackout i mean like 3or4 months and price of groceries doubled. So yeah it’s a big problem is you asked me. So have a good day
Fighting we must win
I hope the people of Myanmar can successfully overthrow the military power with their shear will and determination for a democratic country
Fighting ❤️
Trie was arrested
problem is, the Myanmar army is powerful, they have planes, but thankfully terrain can seal them for now. the military also is professional, with experience and proper training, actual ranks and Regiments/ divisions for situation. if they go straight out for war, there is no chance to win. a single armored vehicle could explode a whole company of infantry. a plane maybe could destroy a whole battalion.
it is hard to win a fight like this, might be impossible
America, EU & NATO maybe won’t help even taking care myanmar because there’s no plenty of oil / diamond like africa / middle east
Sadly and ironically more than half milion civilians people, non-protesters have been cold blood killed in Indonesia, by the same trainers and sponsors of the so called freedom militants army. They need to bring Myanmar sovereign country to the same status quo Burma had under British. They had also trained their puppet government for years in US.
Aljazeera british campaign is part of the same british propaganda.
Enslavement is their main goal.
New Year 2022 is arrived. We will do this coup is the last in Burma. Young generation G-Z will push the military to outside the politic. Thanks AJ and viewers.
FIGHT THIS TYRANNY !!! NEVER GIVE UP THE DEMOCRATIC MOVEMENT.
They are not rebels. They are heros fighting for democracy and freedom. Any authority uses power and suppression to its own people is the real terrorism.
They are technically Rebels but good ones
Kuna mkenya huku ama ni mimi na kiherehere here tu yangu🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪
good luck. freedom is everything.
Voter NLD does not want violence NUG. CRPH. The NLD CRPH NUG The bombing of schools The fall of the NLD The pro-democracy NLD CRPH NUG PDF The fall of the NLD These people are killing unarmed people who do not support their actions. I have many testimonials of these terrorists. I am a Burmese citizen who wants to live in peace. There is no member of the military in my family.
Next logical steps would include:
1. establish or further the weapons manufacturing capacities, or import them from Laos, say.
2. establish training courses also for IEDs, ambushes and urban warfare
3. from trainees, form resistance cells which sabotage, subvert and smuggle weapons to civilians
3. establish an officers course, no matter how modest. make use of internet material for knowledge
4. establish government of unity in ethnic controlled areas but within M., and build upon that military institutions of the new M. Army, parliament and etc.
5. outlast rather than outfight the junta. make life difficult for them, esp in service provision.
6. plan for a nationwide “tsunami”, that is, a coordinated uprising of various autonomous cells, to attack public buildings, army units, oil production facilities, etc.

South korea? Tfvk
my the peace be upon myanmar, and the wrath of the lord will punish for the people who started the unrest to this nation, i am hoping for the brighter future of this country may the lord protect you everytime
HUMAN RIGHTS. THERE ARE HIDING .. IDIOT HUMAN RIGHT.
The interview with the unknown young woman was interesting. She is well-spoken, clear in her vision. If she is a larger example of the young men and women in Myanmar then they can be successful. The military regime should have given freedom a chance and they too could live in peace. This is going to be a long civil war. Bless the believers in freedom & liberty.
During the period of China’s decline, Britain unilaterally demarcated the border agreement between China and Myanmar, dividing an area as large as five Taiwan into Myanmar from China on the map. China’s Kuomintang regime does not recognize this border, but China needs Myanmar as a strategic channel to obtain material assistance from the United States to resist Japanese invasion. Britain has blocked this road to put pressure on China. After the Communist Party expelled the Kuomintang, China discussed the border with newly independent Myanmar. Myanmar insisted on retaining the land illegally allocated to Myanmar by Britain from China when they were under British rule. In order to get rid of isolation, the Communist Party of China recognized this border.
In my opinion, Burma’s extreme greed for this large piece of land is very stupid, these places are mainly inhabited by historically very independent minorities, and the Chinese emperor let them self-government as long as they recognized the emperor’s right to rule. That’s it. They have no common culture and language with the Burmese, the main ethnic group in Myanmar, and have a large population. The Burmese cannot maintain the peace and stability of the country under such circumstances. After World War II, Myanmar wasted decades of economic development opportunities, allowing the military to The power has always dominated the country because the Myanmar military used these ethnic minorities as an excuse, and the Myanmar military controlled everything in Myanmar and formed a vested interest group.
Burmese people can change their minds, give up these illegally acquired lands, and allow these ethnic minorities to establish their own countries independently, so that Myanmar will not have territorial borders with China, and Myanmar’s own sense of security will be unprecedentedly improved. The military can be cut down and money put into the economy and education.
They got their freedom for free from Britain that is enough. They have to figure it out by themselves!
UN & US must announce Myanmar military coup council as the World Worst Genocidal Terrorist Organization and must destroy this organization urgently for saving Myanmar people lives.
They look so helpless and innocent but then you realize this nation celebrated Rohingia genocide and now that same monster the praised is coming for them.
If theres a bull fight its the grass on the ground who suffered the most.
We know but the people just dont like the military government including me so we or just trying to overthrow it
You have to flight for freedom for one day , good luck for you, I paying for you guys 🙏🙏🙏 , from Thai people
Why don’t USA and other western forces went their to restore democracy like they did in middle eastern countries
Myanmar has to pay heavy price for the genocide of Rohingya .this is the punishment from God , now you fight each other
“secret location near Myanmar Chinese border” well not a secret anymore
People unit and you will win.
I am from Bangladesh… I prayer for myanmar people… We want also back democracy in Myanmar…
So where is the so called UN??? UN has become a thread to the world.
Myanmar gov is monster
Myanmar’s military junta shall fall. The world support the Myanmar’s people against the coup. God bless the resistance
The question I need to ask the world leaders is that where is United nation after all
Tensions in Ukraine is rising so they are focusing on it
What rifle are they using??
Hello rohingya muslim how are you
No retreat no surrender brothers train hard fight easy godspeed to all of you.
Bamar destoyed myanmar
I’m from Indonesia, i think it’ll be hard for a certain country to help. We want to help but we can’t do it. One of our way is to exclude the junta military from ASEAN summit. We can’t support in military way to Myanmar people, except if Myanmar people, make an Emergency government for people and than, Myanmar’s people can ask for support officially to us.
It’s still hurt me a lot to hear what’s happened in rohingya as for my muslim brother, and then it’s happened more to my fellow South Asian brother.
Keep safe, i hope for the best for you guys. 🇮🇩🤝🇬🇭
12:24 song is an emotion

Trees . There is no war . Be calm and breath . With ivy take time to years. It is ok mnthe voice describes this as not the truth. So the trees there is no command . Be quieter
Listen. A money is hate. There is no money. That I return like land or after I think tearsctobactiver. There is plenty. Click sure is never the victory. But marching ? Just walk nothing happens. They the city have legs and feet. The gun nonjust walk away . No not be a servant a fear it is the same as running too and been shot walk away. the tree listen it is others not a gun , guns. Do not present the gun or u fly like a terrible . He sense . Say nature selection . The dinner is the god. Sane over the ckicjs it is the chicken that says I live or die. Not a man
Hunger each time before all meals here to all end. Don’t drink alcohol etc . I wtoonwill not miss the snipers finger. It is . So same the way he walks not shouts I will wslkbthevithercwsy. Tired of this . Coffe of decaff and cornfkajes . See the edge of trees nit after prison tonlistennto chants echo the space time

Burma and India Live us freely we Nagas, Karen,Kachin, Chin,
Wow myanmar army always killed by ARSA army Rohingya people…..
Why UN do not take any actions?
They don’t donate any money for recognition 😪!
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I will return to West Thailand near Mae Sot next month to help at a Karen refugee camp there. Some of these camps hold as many as 40,000 People, mostly women and children as the men are fighting inside Myanmar.
So, what is the situation now? I thought I heard only in the last 48 hours the West is now after they have been instated against Russia (which for the time being and time coming is an ongoing thing) are preparing to get sanctions in place against Myanmar also? That means nothing about its “leadership” changed yet? By the way, when so many Chinese have started fighting at the side of the opposition, rebels, that might make one wonder if that is because the ccp is interested. Does anyone know if that is so, maybe some of you know (something about) what is going on behind the scenes?
India must help the people of Myanmar in some way or the other. India must fight back any thing that goes against democracy. But, so sad, Modiji govt dare not give such a helping hand. Time will go on, and China will have his right hand over Myanmar, India goes behind !
exactly
why don’t Pro democracy countries support them with weapons, logistics etc how are they different from Ukranians
Speaking of logistics,I don’t think any of Myanmar’s neighbours are willing to open their borders to allow NATO weapons move in(unlike Ukraine which have Poland and Romania)
I can’t help but notice how Western NGO’s and ‘advisors’ and ‘aid agencies’ or ‘human rights’ organisations are never far away when violence like this erupts around the world. And these organisations all seem to coalesce around the same ideas espoused by the US/UK/EU governments. In politics they say we have no permanent friends only permanent interests.
Let us help these Armed Group to liberate their country.
BMA
I had no sympathy for them back then since they were all quit and enjoying, dancing ,singing while there minority Rohingyas were getting persecuted…
no that was still just the Tatmadaw doing the killing, the people never really supported, especially some of the armed groups (Arakan Army for example) tried to help out the ROhingya
Why dnt they just start the war..
THiS IS BURMA CHARGE TO MYANMAR AFTER SECOND WAR 4JANUARY 1948 AUNG SAN AND RICH PEOPLE INDEPENDENT DAYS BUT STILL FIGHTING NOW
Why is their military training only 3 weeks, which not a lot of time. They should extend the training to 6 weeks. I am prior US Army, and my training was 3 months. Wish there was some way that I could help, and would like to see more on this on the media. Thank you for this video. And hope to see another one soon.
the situation on the ground is not good. Life expectancy for civilians is halfed in many areas and is very low for fighters on all sides. Schools are shut down so they are unable to cope with so many newcomers, and feeding, managing, etc is very hard
They need more arms in order to be successful in their fight for freedom and peace in their country, Myanmar…
The world arms evil groups fighting but when the good one fight-theyre left alone. Funny world huh?
Sic Semper Est Give me Freedom or Give me death! From your Filipino Brothers in the Philippines! Strength Resilience and Honor! K Together we stand divided we fall! K
The brute military power of Myanmar have exceeded all limits of atrocities against innocent civilians. All civilized nations must come forward to save people of Myanmar from the brute junta and extend all sorts of humanitarian aid so that peace and democratic rules may establish there very soon.
Oh my God help this country to get the democracy
Pray for Myanmar,
Why pray they ate just buddists?
Brutaly killed 1000 of minorities. Now you each other’s. Good guy’s
No Sympathy for Myanmar. they deserve this.

I’m from Myanmar. Hey! This is just a misinform video for Myanmar! The update situation of Myanmar is now being terrorised by those PDF (Who said they will protect the civil liberty). PDF kill kids and graybeards and also innocent people. Media in Myanmar don’t subscribe about such terrorism.
Sitkwe bot
Rebels are holding out their protest against the Junta in Israel, the country that facilitated the rohingya genocide and provided guns to the military.
Israel would be long gone if people knew about what they did
korban itu semua punya saya lu harus paham ini saja jangan banyyak tanya
voa gruop
So they now killing each other instead of killing rohingya people
no tatmadaw was the one killing rohingya to begin with. Now they’re just killing everyone else
I support u guys from India
most of these people either praise the same JUNTA or remain SILENT when they were killing innocent Rohingyas in similar manner…..now then the MONSTER turn towards them and start eating them they have also re acted in similar manner how some Rohingyas created their armed unit to fight the JUNTA…..but they were called TERRORISTS and these people called REBELLION….
There’re some more States and provinces those are faced the bombing, shooting, raping, houses burned down across the country of Burma. Not only happening in Kachin and Karen States
i know of many refugees from Chin Sagaing and Arakan who say that fighting is getting way worse
Please help Myanmar, and accept National Unity Government of Myanmar.
absolutely, <3 from West Bengal
whole of East & NE India is with you
This conflict has been going on for more than 60 years (one of the longest civilian wars in history) it gained more publicity because of the coup de tat….. it started with the massacring of the Karen villages and many other ethnic groups in Burma (Myanmar)
yes
