Myanmar's junta chief vowed on Thursday to strike back after an alliance of ethnic armed groups seized towns and blocked trade routes to China in the biggest coordinated offensive against the military since it seized power in a coup.
The son of Myanmar's Daw Aung San Suu Kyi told Agence France-Presse she sounded "fairly healthy" after speaking to the detained ex-democratic leader on Thursday for the first time in more than five years.
