The Myanmar security forces’ massacre of several dozen people has all the hallmarks of a planned attack on protesters.
“Hlaing Tharyar was a bloodbath for which all those responsible should be brought to justice," says @mannymaung#WhatsHappeningInMyanmar
"I got hit and fell down in front of a truck. A soldier beat me with his rifle but I defended and pushed him back. Then he immediately shot at me as I ran away in a zig-zag pattern. Fortunately, I escaped," a protester told @Reuters by phone.

Today 4 youths were killed for protesting. These young people woke up early for the strike, confronted parents & got on streets to mobilize people to keep up the spirit & resist the Junta.
✅ Use yr available freedom to bring Myanmar back to attention pls.✊

#Myanmar#Yangon protesters scatter as #military interrupts morning demonstration. Screams & shots fired heard towards end of video widely circulated on social media. 3 people reportedly killed. Flash protests usually happen regularly without incident #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar

At least four people were killed due to SAC vehicle drives through a group of protesters and opened fire at Pan Pin Gyi Road in Kyeemyindaing, Rangoon on Sunday
One tragic scene of the day.
5 men were killed by falling from height running from the chase of Junta’s Terrorists and 2 more men were brutally arrested. We were counting days to end all of this but we know we are too tired & sometimes even hopeless. #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar
@poppymcp Where is Responsibility? Where is detainees release? Where is democracy restoration? Myanmar have been in this situation during 1988-2007. ASEAN did the same. Giving more time to inhumane fascists. Thanks for standing with us but we don't trust you ASEAN. #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar
Myanmar accepted a proposal to stop violence against civilians, Malaysian PM said after @ASEAN meeting: "We have succeeded. It's beyond our expectation in getting the outcome from today's meeting," Muhyiddin said. Now to see whether the killings stop. #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar

Night of #Jakarta@ASEAN leaders' summit where Myanmar #military chief attended with bloc calling for immediate stop to violence. But intimidation continues. Citizens still living in fear as security forces continue to prowl neighbourhoods in text to me #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar
Why were expectations so low for ASEAN on the Myanmar coup?
1. Philippines slaughters thousands in its drug war
2. Vietnam imposes long prison sentences on dissidents.
3. Thailand had its own military coup.
No wonder ASEAN believes in "non-interference." https://t.co/LP2DSTiMOz
At least 745 civilians have been killed by the Myanmar junta’s forces since the coup, says @aapp_burma. After @ASEAN agreement on ending violence, does that mean peaceful protests will not be suppressed from now? #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar
“If you were a Burmese, would you accept to live under a murderous regime”. Some representative comments showing frustration of many Myanmar people at the outcome of today’s ASEAN summit, posted on the Singaporean Foreign Minister’s FB page tonight.

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.
