At least 18 more protesters were shot and killed by the Myanmar police yesterday, according to the United Nations, with over 30 injured and hundreds detained often violently. Three were shot dead earlier in a long February of resistance. Artists have been at the front lines of mass protests, expected to escalate today, since the military overthrew the country’s democratically elected government on 1 February and arrested senior officials including Aung San Suu Kyi and the president U Win Myint.
