Myanmar's military-appointed election commission announced Monday that elections will begin December 28, setting a date for polls that critics have denounced as a sham intended to normalize the army's 2021 seizure of power even as armed conflict rages throughout much of the country.

Myanmar to hold first phase of general elections on December 28

The Union Election Commission said in a statement sent to journalists that the elections will be conducted in phases over several days and that a full schedule will be released soon.

A separate statement from the commission, published Saturday in the state-run Myanma Alinn newspaper, said that all 330 townships in the country have been designated as constituencies for the election.

Nearly 60 parties, including the military-backed Union Solidarity and Development Party, have registered to run, according to the list on the commission's website.
