It’s been 6 days since the Military Junta cut off mobile internet which people in rural areas rely mostly on. WIFI is still accessible yet we are not sure until when. We do not accept INTERNET SHUT DOWN. We do not accept NEWS SUPPRESSION.

Attacks on press freedom in Myanmar continue with the military revoking the licence of five local companies - Myanmar Now, 7Day News, DVB, Mizzima and Knit Thit News. Since the coup, a total of 34 journalists have been detained according to @aapp_burma#WhatsHapppeningInMyanmar
In speaking today with Burmese Ambassador Kyaw Moe Tun, I commended him for his courageous statement at the UN General Assembly and reiterated our support for the people of Burma and the restoration of the democratically-elected government.

Myanmar police "fired stun grenades and rubber bullets on Tuesday to disperse protesters in the city of Yangon." The junta shows indifference to the right to protest as it prioritizes the defense of its coup. https://t.co/yuNRe9qNIO
