Abstract

The article focuses on the specialized training of soldiers from the Karenni Nationalities Defence Force (KNDF) in combat photography and documentation, aimed at gathering military intelligence and documenting war crimes committed by the Myanmar military junta. The training emphasizes meticulous techniques for capturing evidence, including photographing weapons, crime scenes, and identifying details that could be used in international war crimes tribunals. Instructors highlight the importance of this documentation in swaying public opinion and holding perpetrators accountable, while trainees grapple with the emotional challenges of photographing the dead, including friends and civilians. The article underscores the role of media in asymmetric warfare and the significance of documenting atrocities in the fight against the junta. [Extracted from the article]
