The Myanmar coup refers to the military takeover that occurred on February 1, 2021, when the Tatmadaw (Myanmar Armed Forces) seized power, detaining State Counsellor Aung San Suu Kyi and other leaders of the National League for Democracy (NLD). This coup overturned the results of the November 2020 general election, in which the NLD won a landslide victory. The coup has led to widespread protests, civil disobedience movements, and violent crackdowns by the military, resulting in significant political instability and humanitarian crises in Myanmar. The international community has condemned the coup, imposing sanctions and calling for a return to democracy. The situation continues to evolve, with ongoing resistance against the military regime.
