Junta’s Writ Only Runs in One-Third of Myanmar: NUG

The military regime now controls only 107 of Myanmar’s 330 townships or 32 percent, according to a report by the civilian National Unity Government (NUG).

The report released Saturday by the NUG’s Ministry of Defense says People’s Defense Forces (PDFs) and ethnic armed organizations (EAOs) either completely or largely control 144 townships or 44 percent of the country.
