#Myanmar #military security forces seem to be using more powerful weapons to disperse protesters. Person who sent me video for use told me an RPG (unverified) was fired at #Yangon demonstrators as it's so powerful it destroyed piled up sandbag barriers #WhatsHappeninglnMyanmar pic.twitter.com/JAF3Q1xjB9

First, they killed Rohingya. Now, they kill it’s own people. And the world leaders are busy on tables and media. The World needs urgent action to stop this Dictator Junta. Just sending condemnation on a piece of paper is unacceptable.#StandWithMyanmar #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar pic.twitter.com/qQqNTMxev2
