Four years ago Myanmar's military staged a coup and sparked a war
Briefly

Four years post-military coup, the political landscape remains dire, marked by escalating violence and humanitarian crises. The military's actions have intensified, leading to unprecedented civilian casualties and mass displacement, with nearly half the population now in poverty. International voices, including those from the U.S. and EU, criticized the military's actions and called for the release of political prisoners. With around 20 million needing humanitarian aid, the ongoing civil war has further compounded the humanitarian crisis, leaving the prospects for peace increasingly bleak and the suffering of civilians reaching alarming levels.
Peace prospects look bleak as a civil war rages despite international pressure on the military four years after it seized power from an elected civilian government.
The four years after the army's takeover have created a profound situation of multiple, overlapping crises with nearly half the population in poverty.
After four years, it is deeply distressing to find that the situation on the ground for civilians is only getting worse by the day.
The U.N. Human Rights Office said the military ramped up violence against civilians last year to unprecedented levels, inflicting the heaviest civilian death toll since the army takeover.
