A shootout broke out between the Mandalay People’s Defence Force and regime troops in Chanmyatharzi Township on Tuesday morning after an attempted raid by the junta on the civilian guerrilla group’s location. The situation was still unfolding at the time of reporting.
Human rights defenders are under siege in Myanmar. The violent abduction of Man Zar Myay Mon (pictured below) on June 8 in Sagaing is the most recent example. The junta must assure the safety of this community leader and that of every other person unlawfully detained in Myanmar.
Horrified to learn that in addition to murdering at least 737 people & arresting well over 3200, the junta's attacks have already left nearly a quarter million Myanmar people displaced, according to sources. The world must act immediately to address this humanitarian catastrophe.

I saw this image earlier today and can't stop thinking about it. So many young lives have been lost in Myanmar. Many of the 702 victims are young teenagers. But they're still on the streets and on social media protesting the military and begging for stronger international action.
