The Ta'ang National Liberation Army (TNLA) is one of around a dozen ethnic rebel groups along the Myanmar-China border that have fought the military for decades over autonomy and control of lucrative resources. Since the coup in Myanmar two years ago, ethnic rebel groups have taken centre stage in the nationwide battle for democracy, clashing with junta troops and training anti-coup "People's Defence Force" groups from the Bamar majority.
Tigrayan rebels star handing over thier heavy weapons. It's a key condition of a deal signed in November to end a deadly conflict that raved Ethiopia for two years.

Tigrayan rebels said Wednesday they have begun handing in their heavy weapons, a key part of a deal signed more than two months ago to end a deadly conflict in northern Ethiopia. The terms of the November 2 peace agreement include disarming rebel forces, restoring federal authority in Tigray and reopening access and communications to the region, which has been cut off from the outside world since mid-2021.
