Myanmar’s de-facto leader, Aung San Suu Kyi, has been detained. The military has also gained control of other politicians.

Tension began to rise between the military and civilian government after a dispute in the election.

In a report by BBC, the commander-in-chief Min Aung Hlaing gained power after the military handed it over due to “election fraud”. With the change in power, soldiers are patrolling the streets of Nay Pyi Taw, the capital.

Furthermore, due to the change in power, Myanmar has declared a state of emergency for a year.

Protest have started to erupt in the city.
