Abstract: This research report is based on the answers of local residents interviewed by Athan and news reports gathered from 48 online media outlets in the context of egregious human rights violations by the brutal military junta under the cover of internet and mobile phone connection blackouts in some parts of the country to sever the information flow after the military coup.

We contacted and interviewed a total of 15 people from the areas where internet access has been cut – four residents of Magway Region's Gangaw township, three residents of Kayah State's Demoso township, three from Sagaing Region's Khin-U township, Kalay township, and Yinmabin township, three from Kachin State's Hpakant township and Puta-O township, and two from Shan State's Hpe Khon.
