2021 Kalay clashes

The Kalay clashes are a series of clashes between the Tatmadaw and armed protestors in the town of Kalay and villages surrounding it in Kale Township during the 2021–2022 anti-coup insurgency in Myanmar. The conflict in the township has become one of the first instances of armed resistance to the military of Myanmar apart from actions by Ethnic Armed Organizations during the recent unrest in the country following the February coup.
