flag Aung San Suu Kyi, 80, remains imprisoned in Myanmar since the 2021 coup, facing 27 years on politically charged charges.

flag Aung San Suu Kyi, Myanmar’s former leader and Nobel laureate, remains imprisoned at age 80 after being detained since the 2021 military coup. flag She faces 27 years in prison on charges widely seen as politically motivated. flag The International Court of Justice is hearing a case brought by Gambia accusing Myanmar of genocide against the Rohingya during a 2016–17 military campaign that killed thousands and forced over 700,000 to flee. flag Suu Kyi’s defense of the military at the ICJ damaged her global reputation, leading institutions to revoke honors. flag Though still respected by some in Myanmar, her release is seen as unlikely while the military holds power, with resistance groups linking it to a broader political shift.
