Rebel groups in Myanmar say they've taken the town of Myawaddy, on the border with Thailand.
It's an important trading hub - more than 1 billion dollars’ worth of goods pass through it every year.
This is the latest setback for the military junta, which has lost control of dozens of towns since October.

Al Jazeera’s Tony Cheng reports from the Thai-Myanmar border.
