In a significant development, an ethnic armed group in Myanmar's Rakhine state, the Arakan Army (AA), has declared control over Paletwa, a crucial port town on the Kaladan River bordering India and Bangladesh.
This marks another setback for the military government, which is already grappling with multiple insurgencies across the country.
The ongoing conflict involves anti-junta groups, supported by a pro-democracy parallel government, seizing control of military installations and towns, posing a substantial challenge to the junta since its coup in 2021.
The funeral of Bhaddanta Munindarbhivamsa, a senior monk fatally shot by Myanmar soldiers, drew hundreds, highlighting tensions with Myanmar's military and Buddhist clergy.

The highly anticipated Super 8 match between India and Australia in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024 will take place on June 24 at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium in St Lucia at 8 p.m. IST. This match is crucial for India, as a win will keep their unbeaten streak and potentially knock Australia out of the tournament, offering a chance for revenge after Australia's victory in the 2023 ODI World Cup final.
On November 19, 2023, Australia defeated India at Narendra Modi Stadium, leaving Indian fans and legends Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli in tears. If India wins this match, Australia will be left with two points from three games and will have to rely on Bangladesh defeating Afghanistan to advance to the semifinals. However, Afghanistan is expected to challenge Bangladesh, whose World Cup performance has been poor so far.
