#Myanmar citizens press on, continuing to plead for global help to end the violence & #militarycoup that's lasted over a year. This despite the world, particularly western nations, are now unfortunately distracted & busy with the #RussiaUkraineConflict. #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar
On February 24 at 10 pm, #MyanmarMilitaryTerrorists arrested over 70 #Rohingya taking shelter in South Okkalapa Township, Yangon. They fled & escaped persecution in their homeland in Rakhine State and are on their way to #Malaysia to find a better life. #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar
With the world focussed on #Russia’s invasion of #Ukraine, #Myanmar’s military junta has intensified air strikes on civilian areas of Kayah State. The dictator in Naypyidaw & the autocrat in the Kremlin are both war criminals.

#StandWithUkraine 🇺🇦
The unprovoked, unjustified attacks on Ukraine by Russia are inexcusable and unacceptable. Russia's actions are against the UN charter and International law. In the strongest terms, we condemn this brutal invasion. Our prayers and solidarity are with the brave people of Ukraine
In the run-up to the 33rd anniversary of August 8 uprising, members of the Basic Education Students' Union and the coalition of protest columns joined forces in Mandalay today to stage a protest against Myanmar's military junta this morning.

Sunday is the 33rd anniversary of the "four eights" pro-democracy uprising in Myanmar. Six months since the coup, people are being asked to show eight fingers and to wear red or throw red paint on the streets representing the bravery of the 8888 movement. https://t.co/IqJb5vdOm3
The strength and resilience of people in #Myanmar is truly inspirational. Risking everything to stand up for their human rights. If only #ASEAN and UN Security Council would honor that courage by upholding their responsibility to protect. #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar
#Thailand media shows rubber bullets fired at protesters in #Bangkok as stand off continues. Tear gas also being fired consistently. Clash has lasted more than 3 hours now #ม็อบ7สิงหา
Translation: I'm horrified that a supplier of weapons to the Myanmar military allegedly paid 2 Myanmar nationals to harm or kill UN Ambassador Kyaw Moe Tun in New York in a plot to pressure him to relinquish his post. Who's behind this outrage? Who will hold them accountable?
Gunfires heard in Hanthawaddy junction, Pyay Road, Yangon. Tonight started at 21:00. Neighbors heard 50 gunfire and one heavy explosion. #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar
“By letting #COVID19 run out of control, the military junta is failing the Burmese people as well as the wider region and world, which can be threatened by new variants fueled by unchecked spread of the disease in places like #Myanmar" says @hrw to @AP. https://t.co/X1haqqeCnt

SAC JUNTA FORCES IN CIVILIAN GUISE ATTACK DEMONSTRATION
One protestor shot. Others arrested. This is becoming a regular tactic for SAC.

Such a shocking image from a protest today in Yangon, even with all the horrific things happening daily in #Myanmar. In the wider view you can see protesters marching in defiance as one young woman is seized by the armed plainclothes officer.
