Highlights and Key Messages
- Humanitarian needs in Myanmar continue to rise as escalating conflict, monsoon flooding, and the lingering impacts of the 28 March earthquakes further compound existing vulnerabilities.
- An estimated 3.5 million people remain internally displaced across the country. Ongoing hostilities between, the Myanmar Armed Forces (MAF) and various non-state armed groups continue to drive displacement and heighten protection risks.
- Since late May, intensified fighting has triggered the displacement of over 110,000 people across Bago, Magway, Sagaing, Southern Shan, and Tanintharyi. Population movements remain fluid and subject to change.
- Monsoon-related flooding and landslides are further impacting humanitarian conditions, with at least 35,500 people affected in Kachin, Rakhine, and Southern Shan states.
- In the first quarter of 2025, humanitarian organizations reached 1.5 million people with critical assistance, representing 27 per cent of the population targeted for support.
- To date, the 2025 Humanitarian Needs and Response Plan (HNRP) is only 12 per cent funded, while the Earthquake Addendum stands at 36.5 per cent. Increased funding and the timely disbursement of pledged contributions remain crucial to scaling up lifesaving assistance and reaching the most affected communities.
