[A bit dramatic headline by the newspaper.] The junta’s military is preparing to launch a major offensive dubbed Operation Sin Phyu Shin – “Lord of the White Elephant” – to retake the areas of northern Shan State captured by the Brotherhood Alliance and its allies since they launched Operation 1027 late last year.

“Operation Lord of the White Elephant” will be led by junta number two, Vice-Senior General Soe Win, multiple sources said.
