Armed actors refers to all armed actors, including Myanmar state security forces (Tatmadaw<br />
and Border Guard), ethnic armed groups (EAGs) and militias.<br />
Ethnic armed group (EAG) is preferred to non-state armed group (NSAG) locally, where it<br />
is considered more sensitive due to nationalist aspirations of these groups, and is used in<br />
this report to refer to the DKBA, KNU/KNLA, KNU/KNLA-Peace Council and KPF.<br />
