Tens of thousands across Myanmar's ethnic states have joined nationwide anti-coup protests, opposing the military's abrupt end to democracy.
Protesters from Kachin, Kayah, Karen, Chin, Rakhine, Mon, and Shan States demand the military step down, release ousted leaders like Aung San Suu Kyi, and restore the elected government.
A key demand among demonstrators is the abolition of the 2008 military-drafted constitution and the establishment of a new charter.
Despite past criticisms of the NLD government, ethnic communities unite against the military dictatorship, emphasizing a collective fight for democracy and their nation's future.
