The UN Secretary-General Guterres has called for a peaceful democratic transition in Myanmar as the country marks 4 years since the military seized control. The coup resulted in the arrest of both the President and the State Counsellor.

In the years since the coup, Myanmar has plunged into a deeper humanitarian and human rights crisis. Nearly 20 million people or a third of the population is expected to need humanitarian aid this year. The situation there is in freefall.

Hunger in Myanmar has reached alarming figures. This year, 15 million people are expected to face acute food insecurity. The cost of basic food supplies has also considerably risen because of soaring inflation and supply chain disruptions.
