Amnesty International says Myanmar's military is using evasive tactics to import aviation fuel for air attacks in its civil war. The group says Myanmar is employing "ghost ships" that disable tracking systems to avoid detection. Amnesty says that despite sanctions, Myanmar imported over 109,000 tonnes of aviation fuel in 2025, a 69% increase from the previous year. The report highlights the use of ships that change names, flags or ownership, and often conduct open-water transfers. Amnesty called for a ban on shipping aviation fuel to Myanmar to prevent further civilian harm in the country's civil war.
