The Kawthoolei Army[3][1] (Burmese: ကော်သူးလေ တပ်မတော်; abbr. KTLA) is a militant and separatist group in Myanmar, split from Karen National Union.

In April 2023, the KTLA launched an offensive against the Kayin State BGF in Shwe Kokko, forcing over 10,000 people to flee into Thailand.[4]

The KTLA is reportedly associated with an Italian neo-fascist group Casa Pound through the group "Popoli Onlus Solidarity Community".[5]
