On March 3, the Yanmarpin Sarlinkyi Village Strike Column led civilians in a protest march demanding action against the military council under Article 33 of the International Labour Organization (ILO). The protesters called for an end to the military’s human rights violations, forced labor practices, forced military service, and oppression of civilians. The demonstration highlighted the urgent need for international intervention to address the ongoing abuses by the military council.
Protesters carried documentation, photographs, and evidence of human rights violations committed by the military council, calling for effective action from the international community. The specific demand for action under ILO Article 33 represents a crucial step in addressing the military’s violations of labor rights. Participants emphasized the importance of international mechanisms in holding the military council accountable for its actions against civilians and workers.
The demonstration proceeded peacefully, with participants working to ensure their message reached the international community about the conditions faced by civilians living under military oppression. Protesters expressed their continued opposition to the military’s illegal seizure of power and affirmed their commitment to the ongoing struggle for democracy and human rights. The demonstration served as a powerful reminder of the civilian population’s unified stance against military rule and their determination to seek justice through international legal frameworks.
