Part of a three-story series on the fight for and rebuilding of Myanmar’s Kayah state following the 2021 coup.


DEMOSO, Kayah state, Myanmar – The empty two-story homes, steepled churches and open-air markets give a hint of the community that Demoso once was. After four years of fighting here between Myanmar’s military junta and local militia groups, the heart of Kayah state is now being reclaimed by nature. Signs warn of landmines planted by the retreating military but now buried by the growing brush.
