In the three-month period, the following were documented:

• At least nine victims of extrajudicial killings.
• At least four instances of forced labor.
• An additional 4,100 people were forcibly displaced in military attacks that targeted civilians.
• At least 11 people subjected to arbitrary imprisonment.
• The continued use of torture.
• At least one case of rape and sexual violence.
• Systematic and widespread persecution of Muslim Rohingya communities.
• At least two children were recruited as child soldiers.
