Military Trucks Back on the Streets of Rangoon

Source: Democratic Voice of Burma

Residents say that military trucks have reappeared in key spots in Rangoon after being withdrawn from the streets of Rangoon about a week ago. They are seen stationed near ShweDagon and Sule Pagodas, City Hall, and major junctions downtown.

It appears that the authorities are pre-empting the crowds that are expected to turn up at pagodas for worship to mark the end of Buddhist lent.

DVB has unconfirmed news that monks from All Burma Monks' Alliance are planning to stage demonstrations on the 1st month anniversary of the crackdown on the Saffron Revolution.
