Chinese Consulate In Myanmar Bombed, Rebels Take Control Of Hub For Rare Earth Minerals

Tensions between China and guerrilla groups operating inside its much smaller neighbor to the south, Myanmar, are on edge, given some of these groups have seized key border towns. Beijing has generally been supporting of the ruling junta which seized power going back to 2021, when it deposed the Myanmar government of Aung San Suu Kyi. Myanmar has been a nation in turmoil ever since.

Beijing actually maintains ties to different players within Myanmar's political chaos, and now the region is could descend into more serious conflict following the Friday bombing of the Chinese Consulate in Myanmar’s second-largest city of Mandalay.
