History

This section is an excerpt from Mon National Liberation Army § 2024 Split.[ edit ]
On 14 February 2024, a splinter group named "New Mon State Party (Anti-Military Dictatorship)" announced that they will no longer negotiate with the junta and will be joining hands with the revolutionary forces, effectively declaring war on the junta. This decision was made during the Myanmar civil war. [1] [2] The MNLA-AMD and its political wing, the New Mon State Party (Anti-Dictatorship), [3] made up of senior MNLA officials, stated that they had broken away due to junta attacks on Mon areas and would only be active in areas the MNLA was not. [4] On 25 February, the spokesman for the NMSP-AD declared the groups intention to unite with local resistance forces. [5]

Post-split

On 6 October, 2024, Mon National Liberation Army Battalion-5, headquartered near Payathonzu, defected and joined the NMSP-AD. [6] The next month, the NMSP-AD announced its intention -alongside the Mon Liberation Army, Mon State Revolutionary Force, and Mon State Defense Force- to cooperate with other Mon resistance and eventually unite into a single Mon army. [7]

On 20 January 2025, the NMSP-AD, the MLA (Mon Liberation Army), MSDF (Mon State Defence Force), and MSRF (Mon State Revolution Force) agreed to unite into the Ramanya Joint Military Column. [8]
