Myanmar
Healthcare centres serving tens of thousands of refugees from Myanmar, which has been gripped by conflict since a military coup in 2021, have been ordered to close by Friday. Secretary of state Marco Rubio has said that lifesaving humanitarian assistance would be exempt from the freeze, however some patients were reportedly being discharged. The healthcare centres, along the Thai border, are funded by the International Rescue Committee with US support. The IRC did not comment on the matter.
