That’s right. The AFP news agency cited local medical staff and said that “four people were shot and killed in the central city of Sagaing.”

In addition, the local media, Myanmar Now, reported that two people, one man and one man, were killed in the shooting of a military policeman in Mandalay, the second city of Myanmar.

Myanmar Now said that a woman in her 30s suffered a gunshot wound to the chest and a male in her teens to the head.

The Reuters news agency also cited eyewitnesses, reporting that a military police shot in Yangon, Myanmar’s largest city, killed one and wounded several others.

In addition, in Mingzan, one person died and several others were injured.

Local media said that taking the situation together so far, it is estimated that at least nine people were killed in today’s protests.

On the 28th of last month, another massive bloodshed occurred three days after the so-called’Blood Sunday’, in which at least 18 people were killed by police indiscriminately firing across Myanmar.

As the meeting between ASEAN and Myanmar military representatives held yesterday’s burns ended without success, the military and police suppression of violence is intensifying.

In a statement by the chairman yesterday, ASEAN ended up expressing its principled position, “I urge all parties to refrain from promoting further violence and to resolve the situation peacefully through dialogue.”

Meanwhile, Aung San Suu Kyi’s national adviser is taking action against the military regime by appointing a cabinet member himself after a special envoy.

Pope Francis expressed deep concern over the bloodshed in Myanmar and condemned the military for violently suppressing the protesters.

At the end of the general meeting of demand, the Pope said on the 3rd, referring to the situation in Myanmar, saying, “Conversation takes precedence over oppression and harmony over discord.”
