Beautiful performance of Kachin song “Falling Star.” Last night I saw the falling stars of the Perseids meteor shower. 🌠 Wished on them for defeat of the coup regime in Burma (Myanmar) where the people have risen. 🌿

Watch a CDM teacher explains how air strikes are the biggest threat to her students. She begged for the int’l community to #BanJetFuel. This is something do-able and will change the balance of the war immediately. Do it ‼️‼️ #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar

Watch: Youths staged a protest in Mandalay, where the security is tight and the risk is super high, to ask the public to “Fight Back Without Submitting”. We do the protests - to motivate the public, and show that the junta has lost control in cities. #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar

The Salween in eastern Myanmar is among Asia's last major undammed major rivers. It's the lifeblood of the ethnic Karen people, who are fighting to save it from mining & dams. Ivan Ogilvie's photo-essay gives glimpses of that unseen struggle: ivanogilvie.com/the-salween-ri… h/t Jeff Wasserstrom

‘Don’t come to us, Don’t come!’ A local child trying to prevent the airstrikes of the junta with his slipper as a weapon. Do you know that Myanmar juntas are targeting civilians by attacking airstrikes? #WhatIsHappeningInMyanmar
