"It has been more than three years since the military terrorist attempted the coup on 1st February 2021; the people of Myanmar are still against the dictatorial system with various forms of resistance like non-violent ways as well as armed revolution. Women are being killed every day due to grave human rights violations committed by military terrorist. Thus, the presented data are monitored and collected on reliable media by the Burmese Women's Union (BWU). The actual figures could be higher on the ground due to the challenges and limitations of free-flow information, as BWU faces numerous obstacles and challenges in accessing data and information. Due to BWU's data monitoring from various reliable media, (67) women were killed from 1st -30th June 2024 across the country. Among them, (44) women died in the military airstrike, (16) women lost their lives due to military artillery shelling targeting civilian homes and villages, (5) were killed by the military without reason, (2) died due to stepping landmine.
