Yangon (ICRC) – A delegate from the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) visited Daw Aung San Suu Kyi on 3 August 2026.

The visit was carried out in accordance with the ICRC’s standards and procedures for visiting people deprived of liberty. This included the opportunity to speak with Daw Aung San Suu Kyi in private.

In line with the ICRC’s working methods, detention visits provide people deprived of liberty with the opportunity to exchange news with their families.

As is customary in the ICRC’s detention work, observations and recommendations related to the visit are shared exclusively and confidentially with the detaining authorities.

The ICRC continues to engage with all relevant actors to maintain and expand its access to places of detention in Myanmar.
