Tens of thousands chant for an end to the military dictatorship and the release of detained leaders.
At least 10 people were killed in Myanmar after violent crackdowns on anti-coup protesters on Saturday, making it one of the deadliest days since the military regime took power last month. Four protesters were killed, and 19 others were injured with nearly half of them in critical condition in Sein Pan ward of Mandalay, the nation’s second largest city, according to the Byamaso Emergency Clinic. Witnesses and local media outlets said three protesters were killed in Yangon overnight, two died in the Bago region and one protester was shot dead in the Magway region. The death toll was 81 as of Friday, according to the U.N. Human Rights Office, with the latest fatalities yet to be tallied.
