About a dozen children marched and chanted in anti-coup protests in the Myanmar city of Mandalay

- Myanmar’s ousted leader Aung San Suu Kyi appeared at a court hearing via video conferencing on Monday, the first time her lawyers had seen her since she was detained in the Feb. 1 military coup.

“I saw A May on the video, she looks healthy,” lawyer Min Min Soe told Reuters, using an affectionate term meaning “mother” to refer to Suu Kyi.The Nobel Peace laureate, who leads the National League for Democracy , has not been seen in public since her government was ousted and she was detained along with other party leaders.

Police in the main city of Yangon used stun grenades and tear gas to disperse hundreds of protesters on Monday, witnesses said. “This is my neighbourhood. It’s a lovely neighbourhood but now we’re hearing gunfire and we don’t feel safe at home.” Live video on Facebook showed a small crowd in hard hats gathered across a street in the northeastern town of Lashio, chanting slogans as police marched towards them. Protesters also marched in the central town of Bagan.The coup brought a halt to Myanmar’s tentative steps towards democracy after nearly 50 years of military rule and has drawn condemnation from Western countries and growing concern among its neighbours.

U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken denounced what he called “abhorrent violence” by security forces, while Canada’s foreign minister, Marc Garneau, called the military’s use of lethal force “appalling”.

The situation in Myanmar is not a 'battleground' or a 'war zone.' The Myanmar military and police are killing unarmed peaceful protesters. That's not war, it's slaughter. WhatsHappeningInMyanmar freya_cole KenRoth YourAnonCentral SchranerBurgen1 RapporteurUn
