To the Myanmar military junta,

I am writing to demand that you immediately release photojournalist Sai Zaw Thaike.

Sai Zaw has been persecuted for his work reporting on the devastation caused by Cyclone Mocha. In 2023, he was arrested and sentenced by a military tribunal to 20 years in prison. He has endured beatings by prison staff and periods of solitary confinement. Sai Zaw must be freed now.

Sincerely,
