The law has been activated in the wake of the army’s biggest setbacks since the countrywide conflict erupted after the takeover. The rout inspired resistance forces in other parts of the country to launch their own attacks. The military government’s forces were stretched thin by the recent upsurge in resistance activity. The 2021 military takeover was met by widespread nonviolent protests and civil disobedience. But the confrontations escalated into violence after security forces used deadly force against the protesters, giving birth to organized armed resistance that has spiraled into civil war.

UNITED NATIONS (AP) — Nine members of the United Nations Security Council condemned “indiscriminate” airstrikes by Myanmar's military against civilians before an envoy briefed the council Monday as part of regional efforts to implement a peace plan that has so far been largely ineffective. Before the council meeting, nine of the 15 council members stood before reporters to support a statement read by Britain’s U.N. The United States pushed for an enforceable Security Council resolution to prevent Myanmar from getting jet fuel, the council diplomat said. According to the council diplomat, China, which has close ties to Myanmar, emphasized the need to give ASEAN's efforts time and space. Russia, which also has links to Myanmar, reiterated that the council shouldn’t be interfering in the country’s internal affairs.

Muse hosts the 105-Mile Trade Zone and has the greatest volume of trade with China. It is the fourth border crossing seized by the alliance forces in a month of intense fighting. Social media sites associated with the Myanmar National Democratic Alliance Army displayed photos and video of what they said were its forces at the border gate. Fighting has been raging in the region since the Arakan Army, the Myanmar National Democratic Alliance Army and the Ta’ang National Liberation Army, calling themselves the Three Brotherhood Alliance, launched a coordinated offensive on Oct. 27. The Myanmar National Democratic Alliance Army has made common cause with Beijing by declaring elimination of the cyberscam operations to be one of its goals.

The ethnic Chin fighters said they used drones to drop bombs on the military bases, and junta soldiers fought back - especially fiercely at Khawmawi - occasionally firing mortars. At least nine Chin fighters were killed in the assault, along with six junta soldiers, two Chin rebels said, asking not to be named. Suan and Lawma's account of the battle, which was corroborated by a rebel commander and six residents who witnessed some of the fighting, provides a rare ground-level insight into a widening assault against Myanmar's military junta. After the two military camps were overrun, 43 junta soldiers crossed over to India seeking shelter and most were subsequently flown back to Myanmar. On the other side stood armed Chin rebels, under a billowing Chin flag.

Reuters could not independently verify the information from the AA, which is one of three ethnic minority insurgent groups that launched a coordinated offensive against junta forces in late October. A curfew has been imposed in the Rakhine State capital Sittwe, where military tanks have been sighted, the administration there said. A junta spokesperson, Zaw Min Tun, on Tuesday accused the rebel groups of "destroying the whole country" and said reports of captured military posts were "propaganda". He did not comment on reports of junta forces surrendering. Most of the Myanmar soldiers were flown by Indian forces to another point on the border and handed back to Myanmar authorities, said an Indian security official who declined to be identified.

BANGKOK (AP) — Myanmar’s imprisoned former leader, Aung San Suu Kyi, is suffering from symptoms of low blood pressure including dizziness and loss of appetite, but has been denied treatment at qualified facilities outside the prison system, a medical worker said Thursday. Separately, a military officer who also insisted on anonymity confirmed a report by the BBC’s Myanmar-language service that Suu Kyi was suffering a severe toothache that left her unable to eat and caused vomiting. However, the ruling military council’s spokesperson, Maj. Gen. Zaw Min Tun, said Suu Kyi was in good health, the report said. Not only are details about Suu Kyi’s health unclear, but even her exact whereabouts are not publicly known. Appeals of Suu Kyi’s convictions are still being processed on charges including election fraud, breaching the official secrets acts and six other corruption allegations, legal officials have said.

Water bears can go years without food or water and endure extreme radiation and temperatures. When the water bears returned to Earth, the scientists discovered that 68% survived. A thawed tardigrade survived being frozen for 3 decadesIn 2016, scientists at Japan's National Institute of Polar Research examined tardigrades retrieved from a frozen moss sample collected in Antarctica in 1983. Still, in a 2020 study, researchers found that long-term exposure to high temperatures, even in their hibernated state, can kill tardigrades in only a day. Tardigrades survived being shot out of a high-speed gunSome scientists believe that tardigrades may be capable of spreading life to different planets.

Toate legi cu dedicație, care ar putea să arunce țara în prăpastie prin prejudiciile financiare uriașe generate. Politica bugetar-fiscală a țării pentru anul 2021 și bugetele pentru anul viitor au fost adoptate pe repede înainte, fără dezbateri, fără ca deputații opoziției să-și poată susține amendamentele, cu încălcarea oricăror reguli parlamentare. Așa arată un stat capturat, de data asta nu de Plahotniuc, ci de binomul infracțional Dodon-Șor, care a preluat și continuat schemele de corupție/contrabandă ale oligarhului fugar”, afirmă deputatul PNL de la București. Miza lor a fost ca aceste legi să fie promulgate de Dodon înainte ca Maia Sandu să fie învestită. Și-au împărțit bugetul țării, ca și cum ar fi spart o pușculiță”, a conchis Dobrovie.

Prin Parlament, Guvern și dacă va fi nevoie vom ieși și în stradă cu toții, dar vom lupta pentru ce este al nostru. Strângeți în pumn toate forțele și mergeți mai departe”, a spus Igor Dodon. Liderul Pro Moldova, Andrian Candu, condamnă ultimele acțiuni ale lui Igor Dodon, menționând că deși în spitale nu mai sunt locuri pentru bolnavii de COVID-19, Dodon continuă să facă vizite în plină pandemie. Andrian Candu este de părere că Dodon trebuie sancționat pentru „încălcările grave” pe care le-a comis. „De ce poporul trebuie să plângă și să bea alcool, din cauza problemelor tale?

☆ După ce au analizat primul avion invizibil produs în afara SUA, experţii au observat un DETALIU esenţial. Avionului chinez J-20 îi lipseşte CEVA important, iar asta schimbă cu totul datele problemei î

Aeronava Chengdu J-20 nu dispune de un tun, un echipament standard pe avioanele de vânătoare, interceptare sau multirol americane sau ruse. Spaţiul pe care l-ar fi ocupat tunul a fost folosit pentru alte tehnologii, iar greutatea totală a fost redusă. Totuşi, mulţi piloţi de avioane de vânătoare preferă să dispună de tun, deoarece acesta nu poate fi bruiat şi nici păcălit de contramăsuri. Potrivit unor experţi, J-20 poate fi învins în lupte de aproape de modele mai vechi de avioane de vânătoare, precum F-15 sau F-16. Avionul dezvoltat de China ar putea chiar să nu fie folosit deloc împotriva modelelor de vânătoare inamice, potrivit unor experţi.
