Myanmar Domestic News Updates \u2013 Oct 30, 2025 Morning<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udccc\ud83d\udccc 1. Discussion on the Situation in Myanmar Held at the UN Third Committee<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A meeting on the human rights situation in Myanmar was held on the afternoon of October 28<\/strong> at the Third Committee<\/strong> (Social, Humanitarian, and Cultural Affairs Committee) of the United Nations General Assembly<\/strong>, according to reports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the meeting, Ms. Julie Bishop<\/strong>, the UN Secretary-General\u2019s Special Envoy on Myanmar, addressed the session via recorded video. Mr. Nicholas Koumjian<\/strong>, Head of the Independent Investigative Mechanism for Myanmar (IIMM)<\/strong>, and Mr. Thomas Andrews<\/strong>, the UN Special Rapporteur on the Situation of Human Rights in Myanmar<\/strong>, attended in person to discuss and present their reports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following their presentations, Ambassador Kyaw Moe Tun<\/strong>, Myanmar\u2019s Permanent Representative to the UN, highlighted that since the military coup of February 2021<\/strong>, the junta has continued to escalate its atrocities against civilians for nearly five years. He pointed out that the junta had carried out increasing airstrikes and heavy artillery attacks<\/strong> on civilian areas, including schools, hospitals, and religious sites<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He noted that in 2025<\/strong>, the number of airstrikes had doubled<\/strong> compared to 2024<\/strong>. Evidence gathered by the IIMM revealed widespread atrocities such as civilian killings<\/strong>, electric shocks and strangulation<\/strong> during interrogations at detention centers, and sexual violence<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to UN reports, there are over 3.6 million displaced persons<\/strong> and 22 million people in need of humanitarian assistance<\/strong>, including 6.9 million children<\/strong> and 10.4 million women<\/strong>. Despite the March 2025 earthquake<\/strong>, which killed more than 3,800 people<\/strong> and destroyed over 55,000 homes<\/strong>, the junta continued its bombing campaigns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ambassador Kyaw Moe Tun further stated that Myanmar has become a hub for transnational crimes<\/strong>, noting that large-scale online scam centers<\/strong> have been established in junta-controlled territories of Karen<\/strong> and Shan States<\/strong>. Around 100,000 trafficked individuals<\/strong>, mostly young people, are being forced to operate these scams, generating an estimated USD 40 billion annually<\/strong> in illicit profits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He strongly rejected the junta\u2019s planned election, calling it \u201centirely illegitimate and a political trap.\u201d<\/strong> He emphasized that a military group which unlawfully removed a democratically elected government has no right to hold elections<\/strong>, especially while political leaders remain imprisoned and the junta controls less than 30%<\/strong> of the country\u2019s territory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ambassador urged the international community to cut off the flow of weapons, aviation fuel, and dual-use goods<\/strong> to the junta; to issue an ICC arrest warrant for Min Aung Hlaing<\/strong>; to immediately release all political prisoners<\/strong>; and to fully implement ASEAN\u2019s Five-Point Consensus<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He concluded by stating that the people of Myanmar rely on the united support of the international community<\/strong> for genuine peace, dignity, and a democratic transition. Only the collective political will and genuine humanitarian commitment<\/strong> of member states, he said, can safeguard the lives, homes, and future of the Myanmar people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udccc\ud83d\udccc 2. Chinland Council Firmly Opposes the Junta\u2019s Election<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Chinland Council<\/strong> issued a statement on October 29<\/strong>, firmly opposing the election being organized by the military junta, describing it as a \u201csham election.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the statement, the junta is preparing to hold Phase One of its election on December 28<\/strong>, based on the 2008 Constitution<\/strong>, with the intent of prolonging its military dictatorship. The preparations reportedly include compiling voter lists<\/strong>, training officials with electronic voting machines<\/strong>, and arranging advance voting for internally displaced persons (IDPs)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The statement also alleged that the junta is amending election laws<\/strong> to deceive the international community, ASEAN, and neighboring countries<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Chinland Council warned that such an election would exacerbate political conflict<\/strong> and urged the international community not to recognize or support<\/strong> it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The statement further called on non-CDM civil servants in Chin State<\/strong> not to participate in the election, and urged Chin people<\/strong> to reject any coercion or threats<\/strong> to force them to vote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ceremony was attended by members of the KNA Political Leadership Committee<\/strong>, military commanders<\/strong>, representatives of allied organizations<\/strong>, and local civilians<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event featured a military parade<\/strong>, the saluting of the Kayin National Flag and the KNA Flag<\/strong>, and a tribute to fallen heroes<\/strong>, including those who fought against military dictatorship across generations and the seven martyrs<\/strong> from the KNA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the ceremony, speeches were delivered by the KNA Chairperson<\/strong> (via online address), the KNA Chief of Staff<\/strong>, and a representative from an allied organization<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
