The Human Rights Foundation of Monland (HURFOM) has documented cases of murder, arbitrary arrests, and abductions in southeast Myanmar in the first two weeks of November. The organization said that civilians of all ages continue to be targeted by the military junta and the lack of accountability has only emboldened them to commit further acts of atrocity with impunity. On 4 November, joint forces of Junta battalion No. 408 and their backed militia forces entered Mudoo Village in Nabulae, Yebyu, in Dawei, and forced open the doors and shops in the village belonging to villagers. They seized belongings worth 10 million Myanmar kyat (approximately $4,800 USD). Even internally displaced people (IDPs) who abandoned their villages in fear have had their remaining possessions destroyed by the military. Junta forces destroyed their empty homes and robbed valuables left by the IDPs and local inhabitants affected by armed clashes in Dawei, according to those who fled the junta offensives in Tanintharyi Region, Southern Burma. In November 2022, junta forces destroyed at least 16 houses by setting them on fire in four villages, Tapo, Too-Ywa, Sedawyar, and Kye-Ywa in Myeik District’s Pa Law Township, in Southern Tanintharyi Region. The villages attacked and burned down by the junta were Tapo Village, Too-Ywa Village, Sedawyar, and Kye-Ywa Village, located under the administration of Pa Law Township.
