As another poster said, there are dozens of wars and battles currently going on around the world, big and small, within nations and between nations. As exceptionally brutal as your war has been --- as was my father's, just a few hundred miles to the east of yours, in northern-eastern Laos, from the late 1950s to the early 70s (a war that killed or maimed most of my father's generation) ---- keep in mind that up to 10M of Ukrainians have been uprooted in their own country, when Trump's gentle and admired MOSCOW KGB friend invaded Ukraine with 250,000 well equipped mondern Russian soldiers, with their most high end fighter jets like Su-35s and nuclear capable bombers. Russia said it has killed up to 500K Ukrainians NAZIS; the Ukrainians, in turn, said they have killed up to 500K invading Russian Communists, the VERY PEOPLE who are, with the Chinese, supporting the Burmese Junta. And Ukraine has a 200+ mile borders with POLAND, which is a NATO country. THAT should tell you you guys are NOT going to receive much help from the outside world. You are, unfortunately, on your own.... because even the US, the EU, and their military organization, NATO, are pretty helpless.... because they are dealing with a powerful, aggressive, and violent country like Russia that has ~50% of the TOTAL NUKES on earth, a country that keeps saying it would use those nukes, if it is put in harms way by NATO... Again, China, North Korea, India, and Iran are THE BEST OF FRIENDS and ALLIES with Russia. And China, Iran, India, North Korea, and Russia ARE FRIENDS AND ALLIES with your Junta government.... So, you guys are in for some very rough times. But history is on your side. If you guys join forces with other ethnics and groups, slowly, with modern technologies including 3D printers, which allow you guys to print drones, with AI... you guys should win in the end. And the REAL PROBLEM may only, then, begin, since different ethnics that have been persecuted by the Burmese military Junta for decades... they are NOT going to take part in any government, by the majority (like the PDF), that will return them (minority groups) back to second class citizens, as before.... Popular as Aung San Suu Kyi has been, she is old; she's also a British citizen, with a family in Britain, as she married the British ruling class. Her "credit" with the Burmese and with the International community also are running low. Finding a real Burmese --- from the majority ethnic or from one of the smaller ones --- who has the stature, education, and eloquence that could work out a PLURALISTIC GOVERNANCE SYSTEM binding over 100 ethnic groups of 55M people.... may prove, again, to be YOUR MOST CHALLENGING PROBLEM, even after you've defeated the very tough & brutal Burmese Junta... TO CIRCLE BACK to the beginning: ----- remember that both Ukrainians and Russians are SLAVIC PEOPLE, originated, both group say, from ancient Kyiv, Ukraine's capital. They have killed and/or wounded up to 500K of the other, in just a little over 2 years of fighting and killing.... Very MUCH MORE DIVERSE BURMESE will NOT have an easier time, again, even if you manage to defeat a brutal military junta, who has terrorized all the various ethnic Burmese for decades, by both persecuting them straight up as well as pitting one of them against the others, to keep them away from the busy/brutal military Junta rulers...
@@kiabtoomlauj6249It’s another bigger issues that they would face up to establish a united government, but I would tell, it may be the last chance of them to liberate themselves from the authoritarian regime. China and to be said it correctly CCP is already being a strongest modern authoritarian regime to show the world how they effectively using technology to control 1.4 billion of people in the world.

The area of the footages in this video you see is the Southeast of Myanmar. Scene like this is happening all over the country right now. It's been 4 years but we are so close to gain victory. We marched days by days, we fought inches by inches whatever difficulties we faced. More than thousands of our brothers and sisters of liberty may fallen, we took their memories and wishes for freedom with us and stepping against the SAC which have the biggest Army and military equipments in South East Asia. The Democracy will prevail.

Excellent video. I live in Myanmar, in hiding, with my Burmese fiance and her sister. Many videos I have seen lately either all seem like slight variations of the same video, but essentially all copies of each other, or they are filled with misinformation and outdated information. This video was very insightful though, it shows a wide range of perspectives and unique angles, all while portraying things in a very accurate manner. Thanks for the great work in helping to show the world what life has become like in Myanmar, this is possibly the best journalistic film I've seen in recent months.

Thanks for the voice of concern everyone. We're staying as safe as we can manage!🙏 @@lucassaykitfoo TikTokers in the middle of this war? I can't say I've seen that. As for foreigners joining the rebels, it's certainly possible, but you would need to become fluent in Burmese, and possibly learn the basics of an ethnic minority language.

However you could likely skip much of that, and likely your need to learn a new language or two to be able to communicate would not be so urgent if you are stationed at the base most of the time. So if you had a high-demand specialized skill like you know trauma medicine and first-aid from being an EMT, or you can assemble and program automated instructions for drones, you're a versatile mechanic who can fix bikes, generators, cars, and more, or you're a chemistry ace who can make an explosive from whatever is lying around the garage, or anything like that, you could easily join.

Thank you for doing this documentary. It is obviously giving a lot of understanding about the ongoing war in Myanmar. Arte TV must spend some big money for a project like this. I really appreciate what Arte TV had done.
Ohh my.... These people, both fighter's & everyday people, are brave & smart. The way they are treated by the junta is despicable & i feel so much for them❤
27:37 You can see the proof of how the junta army treats the captured against the Geneva convention. Those youths are tortured before burned alive. Even so, UN and those great nations only talks and not a single action has been taken.
Someone I know very well and is in kayin state said that they weren't sure who was worse on either side, so don't believe that everyone is good on one side and bad on the other
I am Myanmar people from Kachin State. I hope that our time is coming, We never lose. Democracy is ours. I pray everyday for my country. Myanmar deserves freedom and good government like ither countries. အရေးတော်ပုံအောင်ရမည်
Amazing what humans can achieve with just sheer will and determination. Much respect to these young people fighting to liberate and save their country from oppression and dictatorship.
As an Igbo man from Nigeria this hits different. My thoughts and prayers are with these courageous young men and women. I pray they get the better future they deserve.
In Star Wars the rebel army self identifies as "The Rebel Alliance". Rebel doesn't mean insurgent or aggressor, it just means one fighting against the established status-quo or regime that is in control.
@@LalaShwanteThey're intelligent people and fight for the democracy for the freedom and they are not stealing shouldn't use this term "REBELS"the truth is the Myanmar army only are stealing the power they should be rebels.
It's so sad to learn that smart intelligent young people like Pai and Naichy had to resort to arm resistances from the remote place instead of using their knowledge and skill to build the nation for better. These people are the living version of Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia from Star Wars
Thanks you for documentary of the situation in Myanmar. I am the HongKonger who supported freedom and democracy, but I must tell the world that even Hong Kong one of the most modern City in the world is now turning into authoritarianism due to China’s grip. From this point, we can observe that democracy and our liberty had been stepped back but authoritarian regimes were even stronger than before. I was impressed on the fighters to develop their own weapons , even as drones. I really hope to hear your great victory as soon as possible. Myanmar’s fighter voices should be heard by the world especially who still believe democracy can be prevail. Every victory of democracy would affect the world’s trend of democracy, either Myanmar and Ukraine.
What these people need is equal distribution of wealth controlled by Junta( military industrial complex). In USA, we have the best democracy the money can buy;) still people complain but no one is dying in USA or Hong Kong. People in Myanmar are dying in thousands at hands of military Junta and What the greatest democracies in the world have to say about it, Zero.
@@sikandarrana6377 Personalisation and materialism let people in democratic would become selfish and greedy, because people care about their own interests rather than the value of democracy and freedom. The truth of the world is nasty, many are refusing to look for it. As my understanding, most of the people have no interest on about conflict, human history and politics.
@@sikandarrana6377 Democracy means giving power and rights to everyone, but people in such highly information world refuse to learn and look for the politics, then how they can rule their government and give a right decision making, but on the other hand it would not be a problem for people in authoritarian states. We are now in the world can’t live without affecting each others, it is a highly globalised world.Eventually one day , people would be waken, but I hope it wouldn’t be too late.
this is one of the few videos that is unbiased and correctly portrays the actual situaion and aspirations of the Myanmar revolutionaries....viewers will now understand why theyare fighting...they are literally fighting for their lives..and for their future generations..
I lived in Myanmar in 2015 during the elections. This time period changed my life and shaped my life since then. The Myanmar or Burmese people are some of the best most resilient incredible people in the world, with unparalleled spirits of freedom comradery and care despite some of the must grueling oppressive goverments and living situations. I right now have seen my young friends there give up their hopes and dreams of education work and so on in order to fight, in many cases with no choice as it was either be drafted to the junta army or join a local faction of the rebels. I too hope in whatever way is possible, people are aware of this struggle and that victory comes quickly and with as little bloodshed as possible to my friends and family there fighting for freedom after 70 so years of extreme oppression. My prayers.
These reporters are brave enough to go on frontlines with the resistance forces. They are not rebels, they are ethnic militias who have helped train and have fought alongside the People's Defence Force (PDF) which is the militia wing of the National Unity Government (NUG). The NUG is made up of legitimately elected officials from 2020 elections in Myanmar. The NUG and PDF are accepted and recignized as legitimate by the majority of Myanmar people.
@accountname9506 The word has a connotation that the government is legitimate. This is what the people of Myanmar are requesting: we are not rebelling a legitimate government, we are resisting an illegitimate coup detat.
@@1xm_mx1 The legitimacy of the regime doesn't have anything to do with it, just that it is/was in power. Americans consider their founders rebels and rather obviously do not believe in the UK's legitimacy over the colonies.
I wish I could be a PDF, but for some reason, I can't get there. Most of my friends are there. I do respect for them. And thanks for letting us know the world what we are suffering. I wanna people to know if you are watching this video, it's not a movie, and if you are sad about what we are suffering, don't be sad. You can donate. Even a dollar helps a lot. Needless to say, I pay all my respect to the journalist. You are the most brave man in this world.
@@earlysdasorry but it's the american Philippines was the most developed in southeast asia at the time next is Thailand. Burma however is also rich at the time but not really "developed"
My father fought in Burma during WW2. The Burmese people were enslaved and abused by the Japanese, they fought beside and assisted the Americans in freeing Burma from Japanese rule. The people deserve to live their lives in freedom and peace.
These young men are hope of Myanmar future. They are not terrorist. They fight military dictator back for our future. They'll trying to get our lost dreams back since 2021coup.
All internet is shut down, The west would likely paid attention to this as they are probably highly aware of what's going on over there. The Myanmar people probably have to figure out how to request aid from the west for their military resistance like weapons, food, medicine and other essentials.. We are living in amazing times, democracy is being challenged before our very eyes as autocrats have shown their true colors.
TQVM Arte and team for making this story possible for the outside world to see as its heartbreaking to see Burmese people suffer so much because of this evil military dictatorship led by MAH. Spring Revolution 2021 will win and be victorious soon💪🙏❤️
I don't even think the Myanmar rebels have ever received any foreign weapon aids ever, but it seems to me that they're doing and adopting very well, even modeling the drone operations just like Ukraine has been doing.
I think the professor is my new favorite person. I hate that the west gives endless aid to Ukraine but not even lip service to Myanmar. the people of Myanmar seem like the most kind and Friendly of them all. I wish them success in defeating the junta
War till the bitter end ..we travelled through Myanmar with motorbikes 5 years ago.. people was so nice ,,and had a spiritual attitude about a democratic system...sad to see how it is now..
This is really sad i am from Pakistan, and I respect and support the young Rebel Army new generation Gen-Z. They are very brave . They fight for freedom.
I've been terrified of Myanmar ever since watching Rambo (2008). Myanmar, Iran, Yemen, Haiti, Eritrea, Somalia, Mexico, Brazil (favela), Venezuela, Jamaica and Honduras. No go zones. Praying for all countries.
When the fighter plane attacked , everyone's ran to bunker as soon as they could but cameraman seen reacting so calmly, not running at all'. He believes in what's universal truth "Cameraman never Dies"to the next level.
These people make their own weapons to fight an army that is supported by China/Russia. That is incredible !. Why are they not helped by any democratic governments ?. The burning alive of the Peoples Resistance soldiers is horrific. I hope these lovely people will end these Junta atrocities. Thanks for a superb documentary. Dave
Nobody helps for free .west don't get any profit from Myanmar that's why they r not helping .while they help Ukraine as war comes to their home. Simply hypocrite.👍

Hats off to all the youths who takes part in this revolution. And for journalists who risked their lives to give us this incredible content🫡
Thanks you ARTE for your hardwork let to aware and realise the outside world how we struggle for freedom. Pls support us fighting for democracy.
Nothing but respect for these brave people. Its criminal how underreported this war is, this is real journalism that is so severely lacked nowadays.
Ohh my....

semoga rakyat myanmar bisa memenangkan pertempuran ini.
kami negara indonesia selalu berdoa untuk rakyat myanmar.
Thankyou
Thank's
27:37 You can see the proof of how the junta army treats the captured against the Geneva convention. Those youths are tortured before burned alive. Even so, UN and those great nations only talks and not a single action has been taken.
That is because Russia and China both have permanent seats on the UN security council and they veto all action.

And the Rohingya...😅😅

Someone I know very well and is in kayin state said that they weren't sure who was worse on either side, so don't believe that everyone is good on one side and bad on the other
I am Myanmar people from Kachin State. I hope that our time is coming, We never lose. Democracy is ours. I pray everyday for my country. Myanmar deserves freedom and good government like ither countries. အရေးတော်ပုံအောင်ရမည်

Amazing what humans can achieve with just sheer will and determination. Much respect to these young people fighting to liberate and save their country from oppression and dictatorship.
Salute to you Sir. Thank you for taking footage and speaking out truth to the world.
Very sad to see... love from Nepal 🇳🇵🙏🏻to Myanmar and it's people 🙏🏻..God bless you all
Thank for visiting my Myanmar and taking video.
Much appreciate for the journalist.. balls of steel 🙏🏻

Thanks for your documentary which is presenting to the world what is happening in Myanmar.
Thank you for shedding light on our resistance. Praying for the safety of all our comrades and our people.
What goes up comes down...😅
A big shout out to those journalists who risked their lives to capture these truth-bringing experiences.
The title "The Rebel Army" should be "The Resistance Army".
Rebel is not a bad word.
In Star Wars the rebel army self identifies as "The Rebel Alliance". Rebel doesn't mean insurgent or aggressor, it just means one fighting against the established status-quo or regime that is in control.
Why don't just look an English dictionary what is the meaning of rebels??????
Rebel is a term used for freedom fighter in some movies, and one is proud to be a rebel against dictator and oppressors.
@@LalaShwanteThey're intelligent people and fight for the democracy for the freedom and they are not stealing shouldn't use this term "REBELS"the truth is the Myanmar army only are stealing the power they should be rebels.
It's so sad to learn that smart intelligent young people like Pai and Naichy had to resort to arm resistances from the remote place instead of using their knowledge and skill to build the nation for better. These people are the living version of Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia from Star Wars
Thanks you for documentary of the situation in Myanmar. I am the HongKonger who supported freedom and democracy, but I must tell the world that even Hong Kong one of the most modern City in the world is now turning into authoritarianism due to China’s grip. From this point, we can observe that democracy and our liberty had been stepped back but authoritarian regimes were even stronger than before. I was impressed on the fighters to develop their own weapons , even as drones. I really hope to hear your great victory as soon as possible. Myanmar’s fighter voices should be heard by the world especially who still believe democracy can be prevail. Every victory of democracy would affect the world’s trend of democracy, either Myanmar and Ukraine.
Please continue to work for freedom, eric.
What these people need is equal distribution of wealth controlled by Junta( military industrial complex). In USA, we have the best democracy the money can buy;) still people complain but no one is dying in USA or Hong Kong. People in Myanmar are dying in thousands at hands of military Junta and What the greatest democracies in the world have to say about it, Zero.
@@sikandarrana6377 Personalisation and materialism let people in democratic would become selfish and greedy, because people care about their own interests rather than the value of democracy and freedom. The truth of the world is nasty, many are refusing to look for it. As my understanding, most of the people have no interest on about conflict, human history and politics.
@@ericyuen5946 Thank you. Exactly my point. Hence our democracy may not be panacea for all our ills.
@@sikandarrana6377 Democracy means giving power and rights to everyone, but people in such highly information world refuse to learn and look for the politics, then how they can rule their government and give a right decision making, but on the other hand it would not be a problem for people in authoritarian states. We are now in the world can’t live without affecting each others, it is a highly globalised world.Eventually one day , people would be waken, but I hope it wouldn’t be too late.
Love those people, wish you freedom and all the best in your future 💙💙💙
Thank you ARTE from the deepest place of my heart for this documentary.
Deep respect for taking news under very dangerous situation!
Give Myanmar democracy , support from indian 🇮🇳
this is one of the few videos that is unbiased and correctly portrays the actual situaion and aspirations of the Myanmar revolutionaries....viewers will now understand why theyare fighting...they are literally fighting for their lives..and for their future generations..
Thank you admins and journalist
Thanks a lot for your news!
I lived in Myanmar in 2015 during the elections. This time period changed my life and shaped my life since then. The Myanmar or Burmese people are some of the best most resilient incredible people in the world, with unparalleled spirits of freedom comradery and care despite some of the must grueling oppressive goverments and living situations. I right now have seen my young friends there give up their hopes and dreams of education work and so on in order to fight, in many cases with no choice as it was either be drafted to the junta army or join a local faction of the rebels.
I too hope in whatever way is possible, people are aware of this struggle and that victory comes quickly and with as little bloodshed as possible to my friends and family there fighting for freedom after 70 so years of extreme oppression. My prayers.
These reporters are brave enough to go on frontlines with the resistance forces. They are not rebels, they are ethnic militias who have helped train and have fought alongside the People's Defence Force (PDF) which is the militia wing of the National Unity Government (NUG). The NUG is made up of legitimately elected officials from 2020 elections in Myanmar. The NUG and PDF are accepted and recignized as legitimate by the majority of Myanmar people.
You are very very Brave to comnt on TH-cam...😅😅
rebel isn't a negative term in english, calling them resistance forces carries essentially the same meaning as calling them rebels.
@accountname9506 The word has a connotation that the government is legitimate. This is what the people of Myanmar are requesting: we are not rebelling a legitimate government, we are resisting an illegitimate coup detat.
@@1xm_mx1 The legitimacy of the regime doesn't have anything to do with it, just that it is/was in power. Americans consider their founders rebels and rather obviously do not believe in the UK's legitimacy over the colonies.
I wish I could be a PDF, but for some reason, I can't get there.
Most of my friends are there. I do respect for them. And thanks for letting us know the world what we are suffering. I wanna people to know if you are watching this video, it's not a movie, and if you are sad about what we are suffering, don't be sad. You can donate. Even a dollar helps a lot.
Needless to say, I pay all my respect to the journalist. You are the most brave man in this world.
Someday in the future of Myanmar people will fullfil there dream to be free from their own military dictatorship
This is so inspiring, thank you for sharing.
Myanmar 🇲🇲 would have been the best country in southeast asia if they r fair and democratic country from the beginning of independence from British
British should help this group.
@@John-.-Smith111 dude which country is not a mess when a country is conquered by another country especially in war? Is just that Burmese 🇲🇲 gov lies
Not only that, I think, myanmar should give them every rebel province own autonomy and own politic state.. reduce conflict maintaince stability
Under British rule, Burma was the most developed, richest country in all of SE Asia.
@@earlysdasorry but it's the american Philippines was the most developed in southeast asia at the time next is Thailand. Burma however is also rich at the time but not really "developed"
My father fought in Burma during WW2. The Burmese people were enslaved and abused by the Japanese, they fought beside and assisted the Americans in freeing Burma from Japanese rule. The people deserve to live their lives in freedom and peace.
Forget the past, live in the present.
@@amittribe7614Forgetting the past is allowing the past to happen again in the future.
These young men are hope of Myanmar future. They are not terrorist. They fight military dictator back for our future. They'll trying to get our lost dreams back since 2021coup.
We prayed for the freedom of myanmar people, greeting from Indonesia, God bless you guys
Thanks ARTE for this truly real video!!!
Watching from Northeast India Nagaland. We support Democracy. May God bless you all.
Real journalism showing the world what is happening around the world. Hopefully they one day will live freely in there own country.
Support From Philippines!🇵🇭
Bring justice and peace to Myanmar!
Where is western nations and media? This is forgotten war going on we should pay attention.
All internet is shut down, The west would likely paid attention to this as they are probably highly aware of what's going on over there.
The Myanmar people probably have to figure out how to request aid from the west for their military resistance like weapons, food, medicine and other essentials..
We are living in amazing times, democracy is being challenged before our very eyes as autocrats have shown their true colors.
God bless 🙏🏼😥 Myanmar people
Love Mynanmar from *Hindu Republic of India* ❤❤ 🇮🇳🇲🇲
TQVM Arte and team for making this story possible for the outside world to see as its heartbreaking to see Burmese people suffer so much because of this evil military dictatorship led by MAH.
Spring Revolution 2021 will win and be victorious soon💪🙏❤️
Thank you for the video. It really heart touching.
Very nice documentaries about the courage and bravery of freedom loving people of Myanmar, soon they will see peace and democracy in their country.
I don't even think the Myanmar rebels have ever received any foreign weapon aids ever, but it seems to me that they're doing and adopting very well, even modeling the drone operations just like Ukraine has been doing.
I think the professor is my new favorite person. I hate that the west gives endless aid to Ukraine but not even lip service to Myanmar.
the people of Myanmar seem like the most kind and Friendly of them all. I wish them success in defeating the junta
Thank you for your service fellow brother in revolution ❤️🙏
One of the best vlog I've seen so far
Thank you.
As a Burmese. They are not rebel. They are fighting for Freedom.
Thanks for showing to us these forgotten war❤❤❤
Thanks alot for your documentary
War till the bitter end ..we travelled through Myanmar with motorbikes 5 years ago.. people was so nice ,,and had a spiritual attitude about a democratic system...sad to see how it is now..
This is not JUST a movie, its a true event and I know this because I live in Myanmar, please pray for Myanmar 🇲🇲🙏🏻
These young fighters are very articulate and promising seems to have better future. Pity they have to go through this war.
Thank you for the news 🎉
Excellent journalism by Arte Tv
Thank you for your voice
This is really sad i am from Pakistan, and I respect and support the young Rebel Army new generation Gen-Z. They are very brave . They fight for freedom.
Thanks!
I've been terrified of Myanmar ever since watching Rambo (2008). Myanmar, Iran, Yemen, Haiti, Eritrea, Somalia, Mexico, Brazil (favela), Venezuela, Jamaica and Honduras. No go zones. Praying for all countries.
I wish the whole world can be see this video.😢
sending support to our brothers in myanmar fight for Democracy🇵🇭🇵🇭
When the fighter plane attacked , everyone's ran to bunker as soon as they could but cameraman seen reacting so calmly, not running at all'.
He believes in what's universal truth "Cameraman never Dies"to the next level.
Watching this as made me feel hopeful for the future of these people thank you for sharing this with out side world
These people make their own weapons to fight an army that is supported by China/Russia. That is incredible !. Why are they not helped by any democratic governments ?. The burning alive of the Peoples Resistance soldiers is horrific. I hope these lovely people will end these Junta atrocities. Thanks for a superb documentary. Dave
Nobody helps for free .west don't get any profit from Myanmar that's why they r not helping .while they help Ukraine as war comes to their home.
Simply hypocrite.👍
China supporting both. So if one side losing, China will side with the winner side.
May God Bless, Myanmar. And May Peace Return There Again. We Pray For The Good of Myanmar. Thank You. ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉💐💐💐🌺🌺🌺🌻🌻🌻🌹🌹🌹🌼🌼🌼👍👍👍🌷🌷🌷🙏🙏🙏🙂🙂🙂.
