Central News Agency (CNA Yangon, July 1st, Combined Foreign Reports) The "Armed Conflict Location and Event Data" (ACLED), a conflict monitoring organization, stated today that since the military coup in Myanmar 5 years ago triggered a civil war, more than 100,000 people have died nationwide. According to AFP reports, ACLED analysts stated that since the military coup in Myanmar in February 2021, the number of conflict-related deaths has reached 101,14. Currently, there are no official statistics from Myanmar, and estimates vary widely. However, analysts generally believe that this civil war, which has lasted for more than 5 years, is the deadliest conflict in Asia today. The Myanmar military overthrew the elected government in February 2021 and arrested the then-de facto leader and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Aung San Suu Kyi, ending the country's 10-year democratic reform process. Despite the Myanmar authorities' suppression of anti-coup demonstrations, some protesters left the cities and formed guerrilla groups, fighting alongside ethnic minority forces who have long resisted central government rule.
