Reporters Without Borders (RSF) sounds the alarm about an escalation in the military junta’s use of terror against journalists in Myanmar after two journalists with the Myanmar Pressphoto Agency were physically attacked and injured, and then arrested, while covering an anti-regime protest on Sunday in Yangon, the country’s leading city.

One of the two journalists, video reporter Hmu Yadanar Khet Moh Moh Tun, underwent surgery in a Yangon military hospital after her arrest.
