Myanmar's government has detained more than 220 foreign nationals connected to cyber fraud operations during raids on the Shwe Kokko complex, bringing the total arrested since mid-November to 1,590 individuals from various countries. Authorities confiscated nearly 3,000 computers, over 21,000 mobile devices, and more than 100 satellite receivers while dismantling infrastructure used for illegal gambling and scam activities. The operation has destroyed 206 structures at the Myawady-Maethawtalay site, with hundreds more slated for demolition.
Since late January, Myanmar has expelled nearly 10,000 people who entered the country without authorization, repatriating them through Thailand after processing. Another 2,490 await transfer to their home nations. Officials characterized the crackdown as part of a broader campaign to eliminate digital crime networks operating within Myanmar's borders, coordinating efforts with regional governments to prevent future criminal enterprises.
