This is so sad. I hope there is coup within the coup and they dispose of the murderous thugs running this tragedy and then give the country back to the people and stand down.

Also, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uhOV4fVJVAg is a good video of a possible reason for the coup.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLL1s3I5Hsw is a fairly good video explaining the background of Burma. The video is fairly lackluster though.

You can also visit the subreddit r/myanmar for evidence of atrocities. Note: some of the pictures and videos are unlabeled NSFW.

The Junta doesn't fear international condemnations and sanctions. They had said, "We are used to sanctions, and we survived. We have to learn to walk with only few friends."

This is one of the things that hardest thing a parent could do. Knowing that your kid might not come back but you know they are fighting for their future. For their home. I hope they are all safe. No one deserves to do feel this anxiety of losing someone we love.
