Since the February 1, 2021 coup and the emergence of the Spring Revolution, a total of (3,672) people, including pro-democracy activists and civilians have been killed through military crackdowns against the pro-democracy movement.

Since the coup, a total of (23,377) people were arrested and among them, (19,037) are currently under detention, (6,456) of whom are serving sentences. There are a total of (115) post-coup death row prisoners as of June 19, 2023. (121) people have been sentenced in absentia, of whom (42) have been sentenced to death. This makes a total of (157) people who have been sentenced to death. (4,341) people have already been released.

These are the numbers verified by AAPP. The actual numbers are likely much higher. We will continue to update accordingly.

According to monitoring by the Documentation and Research Department of AAPP, in recent weeks, the junta forces have carried out extensive attacks and arson operations in civilian areas across the country. In the second week of June, junta forces attacked and set villages in Salingyi, Kanbalu, Khin-U and Ayadaw Townships and Sar Taung Town in Sagaing Region on fire and as a result, several houses were burned and destroyed. As a result, locals were forced to flee for their safety.

Additionally, junta forces fired heavily into civilian areas, even in the absence of any clashes recorded. This resulted in further evacuations in the area. On the morning of June 18, a military column with over 200 junta personnel, fired heavily with various weapons at Yar Taw Village in Khin-U Township, Sagaing Region and proceeded to raid it. Due to this, around 4,000 locals from Yar Taw Village and nearby Tha Yet Pin Su, Kar Seik, Ma Gyi Oke, Myin Daung, Kyun Taw Gyi, Oo Yin and Myin Kya Villages had to flee to their safety.

According to the data collected by AAPP, from January to June 19 of 2023, (446) people died in Sagaing Region due to the junta’s violence. Among the (446) killed, (195) people were killed due to airstrikes and (145) people were killed after being detained. Moreover, (273) people were arrested in Sagaing Region and (40) of them were imprisoned under specious charges.

AAPP will continue to inform on verified daily arrests, charges, sentences, and fatalities in relation to the attempted coup, and update the lists with details of these alleged offenses.
