AFP Thousands of protesters took to the streets of Myanmar’s major cities Saturday, the sixth day of military rule, as the junta shut down internet and mobile phone service lines in the country of 54 million people and rumors swirled about deposed leader Aung San Suu Kyi’s whereabouts. In a move that rights groups warned would leave millions vulnerable to abuses and cut off from coronavirus pandemic information, the Ministry of Transport and Communications cut off all telephone and internet service, following the suspension of Facebook, Twitter and Instagram over the past three days. The clampdown on social media aimed to stop information that could “damage the stability of the state and undermine the interest of the people," a ministry directive issued Friday said.
