Description:
"The conflict in Myanmar?s Kachin and northern Shan States has now entered its seventh year, pitting the Myanmar Army against a range of ethnic armed groups in areas near the border with China. An escalation in fighting since November 2016 has seen a rise in the Army?s violations against civilians, which in some cases amount to war crimes. Ethnic armed groups have also committed serious abuses."
