  • The Arakan Army's growing territorial gains, and seemingly undeterred momentum, have raised questions about the rebel group's ultimate goal.

The article from MSN discusses the Arakan Army (AA), an ethnic armed group in Myanmar, highlighting its growing influence and military capabilities.

The article underscores the need to take the AA seriously due to its increasing military strength, its strategic alliances, and its impact on the ongoing civil conflict in Myanmar.
