After almost a month of one of the biggest military coups in the history of South Asia, there is little hope in sight and more bloodshed
The beginning of the military coup in Myanmar was caught on camera in the background of a workout video being recorded by an instructor, Khing Hnin Wai. The video became historic and quickly circulated on the internet as the instructor was completely unaware of the military convoy passing in the background.

As the country was put under blackouts and communication turnoffs, locals came out in the streets to protest against the military coup and the detainment of the ousted leader Suu Kyi.
The protests, which started from day 01, soon became synonymous to Myanmar, despite warning from the military.

Soon, Myanmar's military deployed tanks in the streets to stop people from protesting against the detainment of popular leader Aung San Suu Kyi. SOon, the military presence kept increasing in the streets, making it difficult for locals to operate.

After almost a month of detainment, Aung San Suu Kyi appeared in the court through video conferencing on Monday and appeared in good health.
