| 2021-02-18 |
| [AnNahar] Myanmar's anti-coup protesters returned to the streets in force on Wednesday with the biggest street demonstrations since troops fanned out around the country to quell opposition to the new military junta. Thousands of people rallied in Yangon, the nation's biggest city, with protesters blockading roads with vehicles to stop security forces from moving around the commercial capital. Much of the country has been in open revolt since troops deposed Nobel laureate Aung San Suu Kyi's government at the start of the month and charged her under an obscure import law. |
