Peace has long been elusive in Myanmar.

The country has been mired in conflict since it gained independence from Britain in 1948, but it has been gripped by an increasingly savage civil war for the past four years.

A military junta seized power in an audacious coup in 2021. Since then, at least 60,000 people have been killed, 27,400 detained for opposing the junta, and 3.3 million driven from their homes.

But many in Myanmar are also fighting back.
