Fighting in Northern Shan has resumed between the TNLA and their Mandalay PDF allies and the Junta. The ceasefire is broken between now between the TNLA and Junta. We will see how the MNDAA will respond.
TNLA spokesperson says MNDAA will take part of 1027 again.
The Irrawaddy conducted an interview with TNLA spokeswoman Nway Yay Oo on Friday.
Most interesting question asked is in my opinion this: Which armed groups are now involved in Operation 1027?
"Operation 1027 is the same as before. Besides the Brotherhood Alliance, there are resistance groups, including Mandalay People’s Defense Force (PDF), PDFs in Mogoke and ethnic Danu resistance forces. The Arakan Army is fighting in Rakhine State. The Myanmar National Democratic Alliance Army is joining the fight against the junta in Nawnghkio."
It was unclear if the MNDAA would partake but according to this spokesperson they will soon join the fight. Only thing is find weird is how they will partake in the offensive in Nawnghkio which is furthest away from their territory.
