The 2021 Spring Revolution in Myanmar expressed the people's longing for peace, democracy and justice. The revolution mobilized people, leading to protests, civil disobedience, and the formation of the People's Defense Forces (PDF) to resist the military junta. It gained international support, pressuring the regime.
The PDF protects the pro-democracy movement, disrupts military operations, and challenges the junta's authority. Migrant families in Karenni State face challenges due to ongoing conflict, seeking refuge in IDP camps.
