Thousands of Villagers Flee Their Homes Due to Conflict

Clashes between government troops and ethnic armies have forced tens of thousands of villagers to flee their homes and have resulted in some casualties among government soldiers and rebel troops.

The number of internally displaced persons (IDPs) has increased in temporary camps and monasteries, particularly in the area’s largest displacement camp, Wan Hsaw,  near the SSPP-SSA-N headquarters in Wan Hai.
