More than a thousand protesters confronted soldiers in Bangkok today, despite a warning from the army to stay away.

In Bangkok, protests erupted following a coup, with demonstrators demanding the general's resignation. Initial protests were isolated but grew in intensity, leading to a temporary victory as soldiers withdrew. However, the army regrouped, and locals expressed sadness over the military presence and curfew. Meanwhile, the military sought to control the media, raising concerns about human rights violations. General Prayut, who appointed himself leader, justified the coup as necessary for political reset, but protests persisted, challenging his authority.
