UN Secretary General @antonioguterres has echoed what the people of Myanmar know: "It is urgent to mount a unified international and regional response" to the coup as "the opportunity to prevent the military from entrenching its rule could be narrowing." https://t.co/dy5VhQ9PRG
“Nothing has found in the Kyal Zin’s head”, “They cut the head and found nothing but 5.56 bullet hole.” Source from the police forces told me. Full story to come!
Very striking that I am being absolutely inundated with positive, heartfelt messages from people in Myanmar, while a handful of white male academics/ commentators (none of them in the country) write endless screeds about how offensive my trip is to the people of Myanmar 🤔

To the people of #Myanmar- we couldn’t seek you out while we were in your country. Please know that we heard your voices, we saw your pain and your courage and we will do everything we can to do justice to your story. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
The junta has shut down wireless Internet access & is now deploying rocket propelled grenades, machine guns & other weapons of war against the people of Myanmar. This madness must stop. Sanctions & an arms embargo must be imposed to cut their access to revenue and weapons. Now.
Today a #flowerstrike is taking place across #Myanmar.
A protest to remember the hundreds who have died since the start of the coup.
A memorial protest seems especially poignant given that today is Good Friday for Myanmar Christians.

#Myanmar friends, please don't fret yet.
We don't know what kind of story @CNN is weaving, but they almost certainly know they're being presented with a choreographed event.
These folks also wrote the story about Ma Kyal Sin. They know the junta wants to malign protesters. https://t.co/tS6yQqzk3n
Protest signs urging @CNN (currently on a media trip hosted by the junta) to represent the voice of the #Myanmar people.
Lots of speculation flying about as to what CNN will report, and why they were able to come.

The Myanmar junta ordered the #InternetShutdown of wifi until further notice.
