Myanmar moves former leader Aung San Suu Kyi to house arrest and pardons 3,300 prisoners | BBC News
The military government in Myanmar has said it has pardoned 3,300 prisoners and has moved the country’s former leader Aung San Suu Kyi from prison to house arrest.
State media, quoting a spokesman for the junta, said extremely hot weather had caused Miss Suu Kyi and other elderly prisoners to be relocated as a precaution against heat stroke.
The Nobel laureate, Suu Kyi, has been in jail since she was ousted in a coup in 2021.
This news comes a week after the military suffered a significant defeat, losing control of the main border crossing into Thailand, as it continues to face a shortage of soldiers.

The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared an Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo a public health emergency of international concern.
The agency said the outbreak in DR Congo’s eastern Ituri province, which has seen around 246 suspected cases and 80 deaths reported, does not meet the criteria of a pandemic emergency.
But it warned it could potentially be “a much larger outbreak” than what is currently being detected and reported, with significant risk of local and regional spread.

Afghanistan is facing one of the word’s most severe hunger crises, a situation made worse by cuts in aid, the policies of the Taliban government and drought.
Three out of four afghans struggle to find food, work and healthcare. Emergency levels of hunger affect almost 5 million people, meaning they are one step away from famine.
It is difficult for foreign journalists to get access to Afghanistan but a BBC team has travelled to Ghor province and witnesses the crisis there.
