Fighting between military and pro-democracy forces intensifies in Myanmar after coup. Thailand reached agreement with Myanmar military to deliver aid supplies to displaced people across the border.
20,000 people in an area about 100 kilometers from Mae Sot will be provided with food through the Red Cross. It is said that medical supplies and medicines will be delivered. The eastern part of Myanmar, which borders Thailand, is a stronghold of ethnic minority groups, and fighting continues in the area. The establishment of the humanitarian corridor appears to be an attempt by Thailand to help stabilize the border area.
