Four Cuts

The four cuts strategy is a military doctrine of the Tatmadaw (the military of Myanmar) that consists of violent collective punishment against civilians perceived to have ties to insurgent groups.^[1]^[2] The strategy has its origins in the 1960s in the internal conflict in Myanmar, when the Tatmadaw was fighting the Communist Party of Burma and Karen National Union in Karen State. It has been deployed many times since, including in the conflict in Rakhine State.^[3]

The name refers to "cutting" off four types of supplies to insurgents: food, funds, information and recruitment.^[4]
