Karen National Union
The Karen National Union (KNU) is one of the oldest armed groups in Myanmar, representing the interests of the Karen people. Established in 1947, the KNU has been engaged in a protracted struggle for autonomy and rights against the central government. Despite the ongoing conflict, the KNU has been involved in various peace processes and negotiations with the Myanmar government. Recently, the KNU has been highlighted in the news due to the ongoing military operations by the Myanmar army, which have escalated even in the aftermath of a devastating earthquake, leading to increased humanitarian crises in the region.
