Welcome back, folks! Had a chat with Ephraim Matto, who's seen the thick of things in Burma. He spent the last six months there, amidst security crises and medical emergencies. Burma's ethnic minorities are resisting subjugation, and the mountainous borders provide relative safe areas. Still, things are pretty dire. On top of internal conflicts, there's interference from the Russians and Chinese. On the medical front, there's a dire need. His crew operates ambulances and boats to get folks the care they need, and of course, the logistics! The rainy season and challenging terrain make things tough. Tragically, the Burma army isn't holding back. Just recently, 17 villagers, including children, were brutally murdered. It's heavy stuff, and the situation demands attention.
