Myanmar Rebel Group Seizes Strategic Town Near India-Bangladesh Border

The Arakan Army, an ethnic insurgent group in Myanmar, claims to have captured the town of Paletwa in Chin State, near the border with India, from Myanmar's military forces. This development is part of the group's ongoing offensive against the military and could impact India's development project in the region. The Arakan Army's recent gains pose a significant challenge to the authority of the military, and the junta's ability to restore morale in its ranks remains uncertain.
