Yangon’s streets went quiet today as people across the country joined the nationwide Silent Strike to oppose the junta’s sham election.
[Will add more images across country in thread 👇]

40 months have passed since the junta forces illegally seized state power in Burma. During this period, the country has been deteriorating day by day.

Mandalay PDF (and their dog) continue to progress
... now taking another base from LIB 148 in Thabeikkyin township
Meanwhile, another NUG PDF is among forces launching an offensive of Natogyi, southeast of Mandalay, potentially pulling troops from POL
Mandalay being surrounded
In commemoration of the 74th Karen National Martyrs Day on August 12, and the 36th anniversary of the #8888 Uprising, we distributed small donations to soldiers injured during the Aung Zaya Operation and those wounded since the start of the Spring Revolution on February 1, 2021.
Doctors of #Myanmar’s Revolution
Armed groups often get the spotlight, but CDM doctors are the real unsung heroes. Working behind the lines, they’ve made a critical difference in many battles. EAOs, including 3BHA, have significantly benefited from their presence in recent operations. This is truly a PEOPLE’s Revolution.
Stop romanticizing EAOs before you all messed up all the dynamics within the revolution.
Another footage of Rohingya bodies
As we keep receiving the footage, it is likely more than 200 Rohingya civilians, including children, the elderly, and women, have been killed by the Arakan Army (AA) in one single day.
#KNU and #IPCM met on Aug 8 and released the following statement: Congratulations, I am pleased to hear that we have agreed to collaborate on finding solutions and advancing towards a stronger, broader partnership, along with increased media coverage in KNU administrative areas.
Today marks 36th anniversary of 8888 Uprising.
We remember all the fallen heroes for the struggle of #democracy and #HumanRights and will continue strive for not only to restore democracy but also a democratic inclusive society in Myanmar.

From a medical doctor to protest leader to PDF Commander
(1/2) The PDF commander celebrating together with the locals seen in this video was none other than a protest leader who was in fact also a medical doctor. Since PDFs are often not highlighted, we just would like to reshare his videos again to trace the evolution of peaceful protests in #Myanmar to the armed resistance.

We watched this loser’s speech and according to him, all the bad things in the country were due to NLD, NUG, CRPH, PDF, KIA, KNU, AA, MNDAA, TNLA, KNPP, China, USA, neighboring countries, medical doctors, young people, business people and almost everyone in the country except themselves. Yep. Sounds about right.

1/ The situation in #Maungdaw is now a deadly catastrophe. Escalating atrocities are being targeted at #Rohingya civilians by the second. My community members there tell me that they've been entirely expelled from the downtown & are now trapped along #Myanmar-#Bangladesh border.
For #Myanmar watchers:
The consequences of Hasina resigning & a new dispensation taking charge in Dhaka would be far-reaching. From Bangladesh’s policy towards #Rohingya refugees to its strategic manoeuvres in #RakhineState, a lot of things would be affected in unknown ways.
MNDAA's blog writes about the "Stockholm Syndrome" of all those who say they want the junta to survive to avoid "chaos"
Also on the meaning of revolution for all those who have suffered under dictatorship.

Development in Karen area: According to social media reports, the #KNU has captured Battalion 341, located three miles from Papun Town. Although the KNU and its allies have been surrounding the area since April, they had not been able to fully control it until now.
