Fed up with the orders to shoot peaceful protesters since the February 1 coup, more and more soldiers in Myanmar have joined the movement for restoring democracy in the country.


This was revealed in an online discussion organised by the civil society organisation Thanakha Global Alliance.


At the discussion were two former military officers who have joined the movement after refusing to obey orders to shoot innocents. At least 800 military personnel have joined the movement, said one.
