Kolkata, March 11 (TIWN) At least seven people have been killed in Myanmar after security forces opened fire on anti-coup protesters in two towns on Thursday.

The violence on Thursday came within a day of the United Nations Security Council calling on the military to “exercise utmost restraint” in its response to peaceful demonstrators and rights group Amnesty International accusing the junta of adopting “battlefield tactics” against peaceful demonstrators.
