New Year Along The Thai-Myanmar Border

TAK, THAILAND - DECEMBER 31: Soldiers from the Royal Thai Army take rest at a small shack by the river as seen from Mae Sot, Thailand across the Moei river between Thailand and Myanmar on December 31, 2021 in Tak, Thailand. Due to the fighting between the Myanmar military and the Karen National Union (KNU) in Lay Kay Kaw, Myanmar's Karen State, thousands of people fled their home to seek safety at the Thai-Myanmar border, where over 4,000 people crossed the border to Thailand as refugees throughout the past week, while others set up temporary camps as Internally displaced people (IDP) on the riverbank of the Moei river.
