What's happening in Myanmar's civil war as military holds elections? Voters in parts of Myanmar are heading to the polls on Sunday for an election that critics view as a bid by the country's generals to legitimise military rule, nearly five years after they overthrew the government of Nobel Laureate Aung San Suu Kyi. The multi-phased election is unfolding amid a raging civil war, with ethnic armed groups and opposition militias fighting the military for control of vast stretches of territory, stretching from the borderlands with Bangladesh and India in the west, across the central plains, to the frontiers with China and Thailand in the north and east. Another third will be covered during a second and third phase in January, while voting has been cancelled altogether in the remainder. Fighting, including air raids and arson, has intensified in several areas.
