Kathmandu. YouTube has removed five Myanmar television channels from its platform. YouTube has removed five television channels amid a crisis that has erupted since the military took power in Myanmar.

According to him, the channels removed from YouTube now include MRTV as well as Myawaddy Media, MWD Variety and MWD Myanmar, which are being operated by the army.

Police in riot gear stormed a rally on Wednesday, removing hundreds of protesters by truck. So far, more than 50 people have been killed in protests against the military coup in Myanmar.
