Another brave & creative act of nonviolent resistance in #Myanmar, this time commemorating a lethal military crackdown on Rangoon Univ. student protests on July 7, 1962. It was 4 months after General Ne Win's coup, and the beginning of a nearly 5-decade period of military rule

Hiding in caves and bunkers has become a way of life in more than half of Myanmar. #MyanmarJunta is still managing to get aviation fuel, how and why? Stop airstrikes now.

The fact that western media no longer talk about Israel's #GenocideinGaza and the oppression of Palestinians anywhere under Israeli rule, does not mean that genocide and oppression have stopped. It means they are being NORMALISED. #Humanity wake up!

Since Myanmar’s 2021 coup, the economy has crumbled leading to rampant inflation & energy shortages. The cost of a basket of food staples per person/month has quadrupled. But in the midst of the crisis, people’s initiatives stand out. ⁦@LibbyHogan⁩ abc.net.au/news/2024-06-1…

The more territory Myanmar’s military regime loses, the more violent and horrific its tactics become, imposing collective responsibility on civilian populations. Its death toll in a village near Rakhine state’s Sittwe tops 50. irrawaddy.com/news/burma/dea…

Short🧵on the appalling coverage by @BBCNews of Israel’s slaughter of Palestinian refugees sheltering in tents in a so-called ‘safe zone’ in Rafah. 1st they run a piece with the title ‘Deadly explosion reported in Rafah’ as if it happened out of nowhere.

The world is again failing the Rohingya in their hour of desperate need in northern Rakhine State. Emergency aid must be allowed in and those running for their lives must be allowed out by opening the Bangladesh border and supporting those able to escape: ohchr.org/en/press-relea…
