On February 1, the army overthrew the government of Myanmar's State Councilor Aung San Suu Kyi in a bloodless coup. In the coup, General Min Aung Hlaing seized control of the country. Suu Kyi and President Win Mint were arrested. Thousands of people have been protesting in the streets since the coup. The United Nations says more than 50 people have been killed since the protests began. More than a thousand protesters, including journalists, have been detained.

As seen in several videos posted on Facebook today, thousands of people gathered in Yangon, Myanmar's largest city, and Mandalay, the second largest city, and other cities to protest against the military rule. The Karen National Union, an armed minority, controls the town of Daui in southern Myanmar. There have also been protests against the junta government in that city. There was also diversity in the protests on this day of International Women's Day. Many women joined the protest wearing special attire to match the colors of International Women's Day.

Meanwhile, state media reported that security forces are keeping a close watch on hospitals and universities in the name of maintaining law and order. Human rights groups have claimed that the junta has taken steps to quell the protests. Meanwhile, the non-cooperation movement against the junta government is also intensifying. So far, nine important unions have called on the people to stop working to prevent a coup. They called for the movement to continue until Suu Kyi's government is re-established.
