American Mercenary Arrested in Myanmar on India's Border

Recently, India's National Investigation Agency (NIA) arrested Matthew Van Dyke, an American mercenary, and six of his Ukrainian accomplices. He is suspected of collaborating with armed groups in Myanmar and training insurgents active along India's northeastern border.

Who is Matthew Van Dyke? He runs a private mercenary company called "Sons of Liberty" and maintains ties with armed militias. He has publicly boasted on the X website about working with senior Venezuelan commanders and carrying out "covert" operations. There are even rumors that he is a CIA informant. Matthew was arrested at Kolkata airport. He and his team provided weapons and drone training to ethnic armed groups in Myanmar.

According to documents from India's National Bureau of Investigation (NIA), those arrested included U.S. citizen Matthew Aaron Van Dyke, and Ukrainian citizens Petro Hrba, Taras Silvyak, Ivan Sukmanovsky, Marian Stefankiv, Maxim Khuncharuk, and Viktor Kaminsky. They entered India on tourist visas, traveled to Mizoram state, and entered restricted areas of the state without authorization. They then illegally crossed the border into Myanmar to receive pre-arranged training targeting ethnic armed groups operating within Myanmar.

So, is the information provided by Van Dyke accurate and credible? What was his purpose in traveling to Myanmar? Did this incite unrest on the India-Myanmar border? #vandyke #sonsoffreedom
