Following Operation 1111 by the Karenni Revolutionary Joint Forces in November 2023, human rights violations in Loikaw Prison, Karenni State, have significantly worsened, according to former political prisoners.


Before Operation 1111, prisoners received meals as per prison standards. However, over a year after the operation, the food quality has drastically declined, according to a recently released inmate from Loikaw Prison.


“Previously, prisoners received good meals four times a week, including dishes like fried eggs. However, during the conflict, they were deprived of any meat and given boiled leaves without salt, raw beans. They were fed fish paste mixed in a plastic bag and chickpea soup mixed with inedible mustard green stalks. This led to severe malnutrition,” said a former female political prisoner.
