Myanmar junta sends more troops to Yangon as protesters block key rail line

Myanmar’s military junta that toppled the civilian government sent more troops to Yangon where anti-coup protesters have blocked a key railway line, media reports said. UN rapporteur Tom Andrews expressed concerns at the development and said, ’Such troop movements preceded killings, disappearances, and detentions on a mass scale.’ Protests are going on despite heavy troop presence in major cities.
