Description:
"Myanmar's military junta, which has branded itself as caretaker government, has
announced the extension of ceasefire with conditions. However, taking advantages of
the uniliteral ceasefire, the junta has deployed more troops across Karenni (Kayah)
State who are thre atening lives and properties daily as follow;
1. Claiming to pursue local people resistance forces, junta’s troops have entered
villages and threatened residents, broken into their homes, and looted their
properties including chicken and pigs.
2. Jungle patrols and searches in villages by junta’s troops pose increased danger to
lives and safety of villagers who are in hiding from recent fighting and villagers
who are faming, and cause further displacement.
3. Jungle patrols and attempts to control more areas by junta’s troops have also
increased the number of daily armed clashes with Karenni Amy.
4. Servaral incidents have also been reported on junta’s troops' orders to remove and
p rohibit Covid-19 p revention facilities and programs initiated and supported by
locals in their communities.
Karenni National Progressive Party is very concerned over Burmese military junta's
activities that have endangered community peace, the rule of law, and public safety and
have worsened the risk of starvation among the affected populations.
Therefore, Karenni National Progressive Party urges humanitarian assistance groups in
the country as well as international governments and organizations to pro vide speedy
assistance and take measures to protect the people..."
