More than 100,000 killed in Myanmar since 2021 coup, monitor says
More than 100,000 people have been killed in Myanmar since the 2021 military coup, according to conflict monitor ACLED. This marks the country’s civil war as one of Asia’s deadliest ongoing conflicts. The fighting between the military, pro-democracy resistance groups, and ethnic armed organizations has displaced millions and devastated communities. Moreover, it has deepened Myanmar’s humanitarian crisis, with no clear end to the violence.
