#Thailand #protesters already gathered infront of parliament house where MPs & senators are debating on whether to amend #constitution. They'll likely be able to start taking a vote at about 6pm #Bangkok time. This is continuation of reform demands #ไปสภาไล่ขี้ข้าศักดินา

Killing of protester in widely publicized videos during anti-gov. #protests in #Belarus means significant escalation of conflict. It can lead to larger protests & more violent confrontations between gov. forces & protesters & toppling of #Lukashenko.
Large gunshot flash from firearm of #Belarus special forces member coinciding with impacted #protester & his falling to the ground in 10 seconds suggest that he could have been shot by special gov. forces member with stun grenade/rubber bullet or, less likely, live ammunition.
A possibility of another gunshot or some kind of small explosion when #Belarus protester fell to the ground cannot be completely excluded as of now because moment when he fell with wound in his chest is cut, unreleased or muted in 3 videos of his killing. img.pravda.com/images/doc/8/8…

#GeorgeFloyd protesters have halted a long line of cars along the Interstate 579 over the Allegheny River in #Pittsburgh.

A car is on fire outside PPG Paints Arena.

Stay tuned to @TribLIVE for developing coverage. Also: @dillonswriting & @nsmallwoodphoto
UPDATE: Traffic cleared by police on I-579 — but an ambulance just reached the off-ramp to treat an injured man near the intersection of Route 28/Chesnut Street.

Several #protesters told me that a car driver got inpatient and rammed into the protester.

Tristen Nesmith, 23, of Beaver Falls said he saw a car strike one of the fellow #protesters along the I-579/Veterans Bridge over the Allegheny River.

The driver got frustrated, “started reviving up his engine and just hit my man for no reason. He wasn’t doing anything wrong.”
