Anti-Junta Fighters Disguised as Monks Ambush Military Checkpoint
Published 1 years ago
Video released by members of the People's Defense Force shows a chaotic ambush against a military checkpoint in the village of Patheingyi in the Mandalay Region of Myanmar.
There's actually conflicting reports on this video. On one side of the coin, the Anti-Junta factions are stating that these are literally armed monks conducting an ambush of their own free will. That said, there's loads of skepticism saying that the Anti-Junta fighters dressed as monks in order to get closer to the Soldiers for this ambush.
We're not able to definitively say one way or the other which is true, however I personally am leaning towards this being AJ fighters disguised as monks, as tactically it makes perfect sense and they aren't bound by any rules of war.
