The Anya Pistine Thone Lay Group has donated rice and curry on behalf of donors to the long-term internally displaced persons (IDP) camp in Salingyi Township, where civilians have been forced to flee their homes due to the military council’s violence. The residents of these camps are currently facing food shortages as they seek shelter after being displaced by military offensive operations. The Anya Pistine Thone Lay Group coordinated this aid effort to provide necessary support for these displaced communities.
The internally displaced people sheltering in these camps face numerous daily challenges regarding their basic needs, including access to healthcare, education, and other essential services. While these charitable donations provide some relief to the displaced civilians, there remains a risk of additional displacement as the military council continues its offensive operations in the region. The humanitarian situation remains precarious with the possibility of more civilians being forced to flee their homes.
Local residents in Salingyi Township have suffered both physical and psychological trauma due to the military council’s human rights violations, arbitrary arrests, torture, and destruction of property. There is an urgent need for increased humanitarian assistance, and activists are calling for immediate international aid to address the growing humanitarian crisis. The displaced communities continue to face significant challenges as they struggle to maintain their basic survival needs while living in temporary shelters away from their homes.
