\ud83d\udccc\ud83d\udccc 1. NUG Says Military Intensifying Violence Against Civilians as Election Nears<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

October 5<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The National Unity Government (NUG)\u2019s Ministry of Human Rights stated that the terrorist military junta has been escalating violence against civilians as the junta\u2019s planned election approaches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the ministry, the terrorist military has been continuously committing and recording numerous human rights violations and attacks against civilians from multiple fronts. The NUG referred to its Human Rights Data Dashboard<\/em>, which documents these violations monthly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The statement noted that while the junta is ramping up preparations for the election it is desperately trying to organize, it is simultaneously intensifying acts of brutality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the time of the coup until the end of September this year, the junta conducted approximately 3750 airstrikes<\/strong>, killing over 4100 civilians<\/strong>, including 559 children under the age of 18<\/strong>, according to NUG data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The report also stated that airstrikes destroyed 374 schools<\/strong>, 129 hospitals and clinics<\/strong>, and 576 religious buildings<\/strong> across the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During September and October, the terrorist junta conducted airstrikes on civilian areas across the nation \u2014 including Thabeikkyin, Singu, Min Taing, Thibaw, Nam San, Namtu, Mantong, Hsihseng, Mogok, Kyaukme, Kyauktaw, Paletwa, Thanbyuzayat, Dawei, Tharyar Chaung, Laung Lone, and Yebyu<\/strong> townships \u2014 according to records from revolutionary forces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The NUG further revealed that the junta is conducting air assaults using airstrikes, drones, paramotors, and gyrocopters<\/strong>, deploying multiple types of aerial warfare against civilians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moreover, the terrorist military has continued mass killings<\/strong>, committing up to 452 incidents<\/strong> of such atrocities. As of now, 4763 civilians<\/strong> have been killed in these massacres, including 538 children under 18<\/strong> and 829 women<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because of these ongoing and increasingly frequent attacks targeting civilians, revolutionary forces have been urging the public to remain alert for air and military threats at all times.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udccc\ud83d\udccc 2. NUG Conducts Additional Training Sessions from Women and Child Protection (WCP) Program<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

October 5<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Ministry of Human Rights under the National Unity Government (NUG) announced that it successfully conducted follow-up training sessions under the Women and Child Protection (WCP)<\/em> program in Pakokku Township, Magway Region<\/strong>, during the ongoing conflict period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the ministry, these expanded sessions were made possible because train-the-trainer programs<\/strong> were conducted once in 2024<\/strong> and again in 2025<\/strong> for field-level human rights officers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The training covered topics such as the basic principles of child rights<\/strong>, serious violations including killing, maiming, sexual exploitation, and child recruitment<\/strong>, as well as gender-based violence (GBV)<\/strong> and conflict-related sexual violence (CRSV)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Participants shared that they gained deeper understanding of children\u2019s and women\u2019s rights<\/strong>, awareness of human rights violations<\/strong>, and knowledge of how to report<\/strong> sexual or gender-related crimes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to discussions and lectures, participants also engaged in group activities<\/strong> on practical response methods to help prevent and manage real-world cases of abuse or violence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The session in Pakokku was led by a human rights officer<\/strong> from the NUG Ministry of Human Rights. The ministry currently employs 102 human rights officers<\/strong> nationwide, according to the official statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udccc\ud83d\udccc 3. KNU Reports 18 Schools Destroyed and 15 Students Killed in Kawthoolei Due to Junta Attacks<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

October 5<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Karen National Union (KNU) announced today, on World Teachers\u2019 Day (October 5)<\/strong>, that 18 schools were destroyed<\/strong> and 15 students killed<\/strong> in Kawthoolei-administered territories<\/strong> as a result of airstrikes and heavy weapon attacks by the terrorist military junta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The KNU said the junta has deliberately targeted schools in Karen areas under its control since seizing power, aiming to destroy the education system<\/strong> of local communities through continuous bombardments and shelling. Teachers and students are reportedly conducting classes in constant fear<\/strong> amid the violence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the 2025\u20132026 academic year<\/strong>, the Karen Education and Culture Department (KECD)<\/strong> has opened 1,738 schools<\/strong> across Kawthoolei territories, with around 150,000 students<\/strong> being taught by approximately 12,000 teachers<\/strong>, according to the KNU\u2019s central report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Between January and September this year<\/strong>, junta airstrikes and artillery attacks damaged 18 schools<\/strong>, wounded 36 students and 2 teachers<\/strong>, and killed 15 students<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The KNU expressed deep respect and gratitude<\/strong> to the teachers who continue to educate children despite danger and hardship, calling them symbols of sacrifice and dedication<\/strong> for the future of the Karen people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The KNU urged international organizations and civil society groups<\/strong> to ensure that teachers and students in Kawthoolei-administered areas can enjoy freedom of education<\/strong> and protection from life-threatening risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It also called on the international community<\/strong> to apply pressure and take accountability measures<\/strong> against the military junta for its crimes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
