China’s military is carrying out armed patrols near the Myanmar border this week, where the government is concerned about potential fallout from fierce fighting in a civil war on the other side.
Troops were deployed to Yunnan province in southwestern China on Monday to test their ability to maintain security in border areas, the military’s Southern Theater Command said.
An alliance of ethnic militias has dealt a series of setbacks to Myanmar’s military in the country’s northeast, which is near China.
