Key insights of Issue – 40:
International Implications: Neighboring countries and the international community grapple with the crisis, providing aid, managing refugees, and scrutinizing the junta’s actions.
Escalating Conflict: The civil war in Myanmar enters its fourth year with intensified fighting between the junta and various resistance groups, leading to territorial shifts and a worsening humanitarian crisis.
Children at Risk: The conflict has devastating consequences for children, including displacement, forced recruitment, and exposure to violence. “More than 5 million children are out of school, leaving the older ones susceptible to forced recruitment into armed groups, early or forced marriages, sexual exploitation, and other severe rights violations.”
Junta Struggles and Tactics: The junta faces mounting challenges, including troop shortages and resistance advances. They rely increasingly on conscription, disputed elections, and a cybersecurity law to maintain control.
Humanitarian Crisis: The conflict has displaced over 3.5 million people, and the UN estimates that nearly 20 million will need humanitarian aid in 2025. Food shortages, lack of healthcare, and civilian casualties are major concerns.
