The Myanmar military has announced a crackdown on online scam centers operating along its border with Thailand. The military claims armed opposition groups are facilitating these operations, providing protection and resources. The junta has reported arresting nearly 350 individuals involved in the scams, which primarily target Thai citizens seeking financial assistance. The military maintains that these scams are a significant threat to the nation’s economy and security, and are contributing to instability along the border. Investigations are ongoing to determine the full extent of the operation and its impact.
