This picture taken on November 21, 2023 shows children releasing lanterns during the Tazaungdaing festival, also known as the Festival of Lights, in Taunggyi in Myanmar's Shan State. The usually riotous Tazaungdaing festival was muted this year, with revellers staying away and a heavy presence of security personnel, as Myanmar's military battles coordinated attacks across the country.
