Admiral Htein Win is a Burmese military officer and current commander of Myanmar's Southern Command, which encompasses Bago and Magway Regions.

Htein Win has overseen the military's 'kill all, burn all, loot all' strategy in Magway Region. He has been sanctioned by the European Union, Switzerland, and Canada for violating human rights and committing crimes against civilians in the Southern Command.
