Insecurity Insight identified 1831 incidents of violence against or obstruction of health care in Myanmar since the military coup on 01 February 2021 and 24 November 2025. Almost three-quarters of these incidents were attributed to the Myanmar Armed Forces (MAF).

At least 165 health workers have been killed, 160 injured, 40 kidnapped and 906 arrested in 560 KIKA incidents across the country. Total KIKA incidents have decreased over time, from 241 in 2021, to 127 in 2022 and 2023, to 62 in 2023, and 16 incidents so far this year. While health worker arrests were prominent in the early years of the coup, since 2024, reports of health worker killings have increased and now represent a higher proportion of the smaller overall total number of KIKA incidents, from 13% in 2021 to 32% in 2025.
