According to witnesses, Myanmar security forces opened fire on protesters in Mandalay on Saturday, killing two people and injuring dozens.


At the time of the shooting, the authorities were trying to force workers to return to work in the local shipyard. They are one of the hundreds of thousands of workers in Myanmar. They left their jobs to protest against the coup d'état and the recall of elected civilian leaders by the military on February 1.


More than 1,000 demonstrators gathered at the shipyard to stop the police, leading to a tense confrontation for most of Saturday afternoon. Witnesses said that the authorities used water cannons, rubber bullets, tear gas, slingshots and final live ammunition to disperse the crowd.

According to volunteer medical personnel on the scene, at least 40 people were injured.

The day before the shooting, another 20-year-old woman was shot dead head by police during a demonstration in the capital Naypyidaw in February. 9. The woman received lifelong support before her injury, and is believed to be the first person killed in a protest against the coup.


Volunteers from Ko Kyaw Lin, a local medical charity, said he had been helping rescue injured protesters in Mandalay, but some of them were not close enough as security forces were shooting at the crowd.

The Burmese army or Tatmadaw that has ruled the country for the past 60 years launched a pre-dawn coup on February 1, overthrowing the democratically elected leaders and house arresting Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, the civilian head of government.

Protesters gathered in Yangon on Saturday.

The military also detained many leaders of her party, the National League for Democracy, including the sworn-in state chief executive and newly elected MPs. There are now more than 500 politicians and military critics, many of whom have not been charged.


The coup immediately triggered protests across the country and a large-scale labor strike, triggering a growing civil disobedience movement. The main objectives of the shutdown include helping key entities of the army to collect taxes, including the Taxation Authority, the government electricity ministry and private banks.

Saturday is the bloodiest protest day to date. At the beginning of the conflict, police tried to force several workers from Mandalay, Myanmar's second largest city, to drive to the city of Bamo, about 200 miles upstream of the Ayeyarwaddy River.


These people refused, and a group of supporters gathered near dirt roads and food stalls near the Atanapoon small shipyard. The man rolled the bucket into the street and built a roadblock to stop the police.


Live video shows that the police chased the protesters, beat some people with truncheons, and arrested people they could catch. At the sound of gunfire, some people hid and hid.

Some police officers threw stones and other projectiles at the protesters with slingshots. They also scattered sharp screws in the street to cut the feet of sandaled protesters while running.


As the afternoon passed, the police became more aggressive and began to fire live ammunition at the crowd. A video shows a group of policemen moving towards the protesters, shooting while walking. It's not clear whether they fired rubber bullets or live ammunition.

Most, if not all, of the wounded were shot. Voluntary medical treatment took many of them to a nearby monastery for treatment, but some of the wounded were arrested.


Ko Min Kyaw, 38, a docker at the shipyard, joined the demonstration and became one of the injured.


He said, "We peacefully protested against the military coup." The police began to shoot with slingshots, and then fired real bullets at us.


Mr. Min Jue said that he ran away, but his thigh was shot, and the wound needed six stitches. He could still hear gunfire even after the paramedics took him to the monastery. But he said that the injury would not stop him from protesting against the army.


He said, "Now our people must protect themselves, because our police and soldiers who should be protected are actively attacking us." We will fight against this regime until it is eradicated from our country. We'll never give up. Police opened fire at protesters, they became aggressive and open live bullet into the crowd, in the city of mandalay

In Yangon, Myanmar's largest city, thousands of demonstrators held many peaceful protests against the coup in different locations, a strategy that could reduce the risk of violent police response.


The authorities blocked the area around Suleta, Yangon, a large demonstration site earlier this month, so protesters gathered in other parts of the city. Some people held a parade. Others use creative methods to block streets.
