In Yangon, Myanmar's largest city, where the turmoil continues after the coup d'etat, Japanese journalist Hiroki Kitozumi is taken away from his home by security forces before 8 pm local time on the 18th and after 10 pm Japan time on the 18th. It was witnessed by a nearby resident.

After that, I couldn't get in touch with Mr. Kitazumi, and the local Japanese embassy is rushing to confirm.



Mr. Kitazumi was detained by police on February 26 during a protest demonstration against a coup d'etat, and was released that day.
