For the hardest hit sectors of the state’s economy — travel and tourism, restaurants and bars, any business that relies on face-to-face interaction with customers — the combination of jabs in the arm and nearly $3 trillion in federal relief money authorized since December is offering tangible hope that more than a year of layoffs and austerity is finally coming to an end.

‘She just fell down. And she died.’

Since staging a Feb. 1 coup and jailing the nation’s civilian leaders, the Myanmar military has murdered, assaulted, and arrested with impunity. More than 540 people have been killed on the streets and in their homes by soldiers or police officers, according to a monitoring group. At least 40 of the dead were children under 18, according to a tally compiled by The New York Times. Often the children were killed as they went about their lives, playing or huddling with their families, in cities and towns that have descended into terror.

President Recep Tayyip Erdogan faced down a coup attempt in 2016 and cracked down hard in the aftermath. More than 8,000 military personnel were prosecuted for their part in the insurrection, including more than 600 trainees, cadets, and conscripts whose misfortune was to have been given orders that night. Their fate has been largely overlooked in Turkey. But after 13 were sentenced to life in prison — 12 of them receiving “aggravated life,” the harshest form of life sentence, without parole — some of their families decided to break their silence.
