Protest returns to Mandalay streets defying military

(10 Feb 2021) Thousands of anti-coup protesters returned to the streets of Myanmar's second largest city Mandalay on Wednesday, defying authorities who used water cannon to break up demonstrations the previous day. Demonstrators formed a parade of motorcycles as they showed their opposition to the military takeover on February 1. Protesters across Myanmar are demanding power be restored to the deposed civilian government and are seeking freedom for ousted leader Aung San Suu Kyi and other governing party members who were detained in the coup. The growing defiance is striking in a country where past demonstrations have been met with deadly force and are a reminder of previous movements in the Southeast Asian country's long and bloody struggle for democracy. The military used deadly force to quash a massive 1988 uprising against military dictatorship and a 2007 revolt led by Buddhist monks.
