The number of internally displaced people who have fled battles in Myanmar has been over six millions, stated the ISP-Myanmar on 4th October 2024. 

During over three years after the Myanmar Tatmadaw took power on 1st February 2021, at least 17,000 battles broke out between the Myanmar Tatmadaw and some EAOs/PDFs forces and battles were taking place in 70 percent of towns and cities within the country, said the ISP-Myanmar.

"Since Operation-1027 that was launched later last year, EAOs and the PDFs that came out from the Spring Revolution have captured at least 74 towns including the Northeast Command of the military council. The Myanmar Tatmadaw faced great defeats and retreats, which surprised neighboring countries and most international analysts." said in the statement.

It has been more difficult to protect civilians and to carry out security tasks for humans while the battles are widely breaking out, pointed out the ISP-Myanmar.

Battles are breaking out between the Myanmar Tatmadaw and EAOs/PDFs forces in Sagaing, Mandalay, Magway, Bago, Tanintharyi Regions, Shan, Kachin, Chin, Rakhine, Mon, Kayah and Karen States.
