YANGON: International media will be allowed to cover Myanmar's upcoming junta-run polls, election authorities said Wednesday (Oct 29), an apparent invitation for foreign press to scrutinise the deeply disputed vote.
Myanmar's junta has "shattered the media landscape" with censorship and intimidation since staging a 2021 coup that sparked a civil war, Reporters Without Borders says.
