Junta chief Senior Gen. Min Aung Hlaing warned that an offensive by ethnic armed groups in Myanmar's northern Shan state will "break the country into pieces" if left unchecked. The "Three Brotherhood" Alliance, consisting of the Myanmar National Democratic Alliance Army, the Arakan Army, and the Ta'ang National Liberation Army, launched "Operation 1027" on October 27, successfully taking over 150 military camps in battles throughout Shan state. The Junta leader's comments suggest that the military has few supporters, as the momentum of the revolution is increasing, and anti-junta forces have occupied several towns and outposts.
