The Very First Night strike in Yangon
Hundreds of peacful protesters are hiding in the houses and apartments at Sanchaung Township due to the violent crackdown of security forces in the day time.
The security forces blocked all the streets of Sanchaung Township to kidnapp the protestors at night time. They also using loudspeaker to announce they will check every household and will arrest people whom have not report to the community offices (which was a law that was active in previous junta era).
These announcements and threats cause people from every township in Yangon emerge to the streets at night time (the section 144 is issued since first few days of coup, which is a curfew to not go out after 8 PM and to not gather more than 5 people) and the very first night strike in Yangon is now in action.
The statements of UN, American, Canada, and UK embassys in Myanmar can be found below.
To quote Cape Diamond (journalists)
"People in Yangon are now out on street at this midnight, to stand with the protesters stuck in Sanchaung as the junta’s armed forces are blocking the area. Looks like the junta’s curfew is not exist anymore. (for tonight for sure)"
But we only have 1 hours before internet cut off and have to prepare for what come next.
