This handout photo from local media group Kachinwaves taken on May 18, 2021 shows a burning private fuel tanker truck following an attack by Kachin Independence Army ethnic rebels along a highway in Kutkai township in Shan State near the Myanmar and China border as clashes between the military and rebels continue.
Bomb attacks have become a daily occurrence as the army struggles to impose authority after seizing power from elected leader Aung San Suu Kyi in February.At a news conference, junta spokesman Zaw Min Tun identified three ethnic armed groups he said had provided training to"terrorists" - the Kachin Independence Army , the Karen National Union and the Karenni National Progressive Party - which has an armed wing.
Some of the ethnic armed groups, which have been fighting for decades for greater autonomy, had been in a shaky ceasefire. But that has frayed since the coup with some of the groups openly backing anti-junta protesters. Meanwhile, new armed groups have sprung up in parts of the country to oppose military rule.
Myanmar is doom.
