Default Myanmar: Over 500 protesters shot dead by security forces

Including Children, sadly.


[At least 106 people have been killed
across Myanmar after security forces
opened fire on protesters,
according to local media reports.
The deadly tally is said to include 13 in the
country's second-biggest city, Mandalay,
nine in the nearby region of Sagaing
and seven in the commercial capital Yangon.
A five-year-old is reported to be
among those killed.


The shootings came as people took
to the streets again to protest against
the 1 February coup, in defiance of a warning
that they could be shot "in the head and back",
as the junta celebrated Armed Forces Day.]



[Monitors have cautioned this only
includes verified cases,
with the actual number of casualties "likely much higher".

In a statement, the USA ambassador
to Myanmar Thomas Vajda said: "On Myanmar's
Armed Forced Day, security forces are
murdering unarmed civilians,
including children, the very people
they swore to protect.
"This bloodshed is horrifying.
These are not the actions of
a professional military or police force."

Britain's Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab
said the killings mark "a new low".]




Its just getting worse every day.
