Courageous ppl across Myanmar are risking their lives to protest the military junta's sham election. From the streets of Mandalay to posts on FB, the people are resisting an illegal and murderous junta in the face of torture, imprisonment and death.

Reject junta's sham elections and its results!

Canada, EU, UK & USA must:
❌Sanction junta entity SSPC
❌Reject its sham election
❌Cut junta’s access to funds, arms, technology & aviation fuel through coordinated, targeted sanctions and a global arms embargo.
#SanctionAviationFuel #CutTheCash Reject #ShamElection #GlobalArmsEmbargo
❌ Every member of the illegal Myanmar junta's so-called "State Security and Peace Commission" (SSPC) is sanctioned.

Gov'ts now need to urgently add SSPC to their sanctions lists to ensure the illegal junta remains broadly sanctioned and to prevent their sanctions regimes from being circumvented.

8 yrs since #Myanmar military committed genocide against #Rohingya, crimes continue unpunished. Rohingya survivors in Rakhine face starvation, persecution & mass killings.

Only justice & accountability can stop ongoing genocide. Both military & #ArakanArmy must face justice.
