Myanmar’s military says Aung San Suu Kyi has been moved from prison to house arrest

By The Associated Press on April 16, 2024.

BANGKOK (AP) – Myanmar’s military said Wednesday that ousted leader Aung San Suu Kyi has been moved from prison to house arrest as a health measure due to a heat wave.

A nationwide conflict in Myanmar began after the army in 2021 ousted the elected government, imprisoned Suu Kyi and began suppressing nonviolent protests that sought a return to democratic rule.
