Is the Myanmar junta turning to the infamous Russian Wagner Group of state-sponsored mercenaries for help in its wars against a multitude of armed groups opposing its February 2021 seizure of power? That, at least, is what is being claimed in the 61st bulletin from a Chinese-language website called One Guide that covers the fighting in northern Myanmar.

Wikipedia has a good list of the rebel groups. The articles I post will include some analysis of the rebel groups and their allegiances from time to time (like this one has insights).
