Thousands of people took to the streets of Yangon on Saturday to denounce this week’s military coup and demand the release of Aung San Suu Kyi, the country's ousted leader. Myanmar’s junta has tried to silence dissent by temporarily blocking Facebook and extended the social media crackdown to Twitter and Instagram on Saturday in the face of the growing protest movement.

ดูคลิปคนเมียนมาร์ออกมาต่อต้านเผด็จการแล้วนึกอิจฉา ถ้าบ้านเราสามัคคีกันแบบเขาบ้าง ลดความเป็นสลิ่มให้น้อยลง เพิ่มความเป็นคนให้มากขึ้น ป่านนี้ไม่ต้องทนดักดานถูกดองอนาคตอยู่แบบนี้

Myanmar coup: Thousands march in Yangon against military coup as junta shuts down internet

Myanmar's junta military shut down the internet in the country on Saturday as thousands of people took to the streets of Yangon to denounce this week's coup, and demand the release of elected leader Aung San Suu Kyi.
In the first such demonstration since the generals seized power on Monday, activists chanted, "Military dictator, fail, fail; Democracy, win, win," and held banners reading "Against military dictatorship." Bystanders offered them food and water.
Many in the crowd wore red, the color of Suu Kyi's National League for Democracy (NLD) which won Nov. 8 elections in a landslide, a result the generals have refused to recognize claiming fraud.
As the protest swelled and activists issued calls on social media for people to join the march, the country's internet crashed.
