The ongoing protests in Myanmar triggered by the Myanmar coup d'état 1 February 2021 took a violent turn after 64 people, including a small boy were shot dead on Saturday, media reports claimed.

As per the media reports, the security forces of Myanmar had shot dead, not less than 64 people when people hit the roads to stage protests against the Armed forces of the country.

With the fresh deaths, the total number of deaths in connection with the Myanmar Coup had almost reached 400 which is an area of concern. These deaths took place in less than one and a half months.

The protests are alleging that the Armed Forces are killing people to inculcate fear in the minds of protesters so that they went step out of their houses to demonstrate the protests.

These killings took place a day after Myanmar media claimed that the protestors are likely to face danger and the protestors would get shot on the head and back.

Armed forces killing 64 people on the day the nation observed Armed Forces Day is a strong message that they would go to any extent to weaken the protests, local Myanmar media claimed.

The protests were triggered after the Tatmadaw, Country's Armed Forces deposed the National League for Democracy party which was elected to power through elections on the morning of 1 February 2021,

Since then, the protestors have been protesting to reinstall the democratically elected party to power. However, the Armed Forces are not leaving any stone unturned to suppress the protesters.
