The Internet in Myanmar on February 7 was restored after a day of disruption, amid tens of thousands of people taking to the streets to protest the military's coup.

"The partial recovery of the Internet in Myanmar has been confirmed from 14:00 local time from many providers after the connection has been lost," Internet monitoring service Netbocks wrote on Twitter.

Myanmar lost its network connection since February 6 following orders from the military.

On the morning of February 7, Netblocks said Internet connection in Myanmar is only 14% compared to normal.

Tens of thousands of people poured into the streets of Yangon yesterday, marking the second consecutive day of protest in Myanmar's largest city to protest the military coup on February 1.

Police armed with riot shields set up barricades but did not try to stop the protesters.

The protesters carried out three-finger salutes, which became a symbol of the protest against the coup.

"We will not stop until we make history. We will fight to the end," said Ye Yint, 29, who participated in the protest.

In another gathering on February 7, at least 2,000 union activists, students and the public gathered at a large intersection near Yangon University.

Police in riot attire blocked the entrance to the university.

Despite the Internet disconnection, a small number of people were able to live the protest on Facebook.

The military did not comment.

The Myanmar military arrested Advisor Suu Kyi and several high-ranking leaders in the ruling National Coalition for Democracy (NLD) party, accused of cheating in the November 2020 election.

The Myanmar army on 2/2 warned people not to post "rumors on social networks" that could incite "riots and destabilization".

Leaders of countries and world organizations have voiced their hope that Myanmar will resolve differences by peaceful means and soon return to stability.
