Footage out of Myanmar (Burma), reportedly filmed on New Year's Eve (2021), shows Karen fighters of the KNDF and KA assaulting a police headquarters (which was also occupied by junta soldiers) in Kayah state.

The attack reportedly resulted in the death of 30 junta soldiers, although that figure is unable to be verified.

The Karen (mostly Christian) ethnic people have been fighting off a genocide, waged against their people by the Myanmar government (mostly Buddhist), for decades. However, since the military junta seized control of the government in a coup in February 2021, many resistance groups, including the Karen people, have escalated their fight against oppression.
