今早泰国军方宣布泰国实行戒严.戒严从今早3点生效
The Thai Army declared martial law throughout the country Tuesday。"The Army aims to maintain peace, order and public safety for all groups and all parties," a ticker running on the Army's television channel said. "People are urged not to panic, and can carry on their business as usual. Declaring martial law is not a coup d'etat."
Martial law went into effect at 3 a.m. on Tuesday, the ticker said.
All Thai TV stations are being guarded by the military, Thai public television announced, showing pictures of soldiers and armored vehicles taking positions outside broadcast facilities in the country's capital.
The developments come days after the head of the army issued a stern warning after political violence had surged in the country's capital.
"If the situation turns more violent, it could lead to riots," Army chief Gen. Prayuth Chan-ocha said in a national address last week. "The Army will have to use military forces to resolve the situation for peace and order."
Political tensions have been running high in Thailand. Supporters and opponents of the country's government have staged mass protests in recent days, and caretaker Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra was removed from office, along with nine cabinet ministers, by a top court earlier this month.
Nipat said the move to impose martial law is not a coup, adding that the precise restrictions of martial law were being worked out.
The government's "red shirt" support base, many of whom hail from the country's rural north and northeast, view Yingluck's ouster as a "judicial coup" and have been protesting what they consider an unfair bias by many of the country's institutions against their side.
Anti-government protesters are seeking a new government -- but not through elections, which the opposition Democrat Party has boycotted, arguing the alleged corruption of their political rivals makes widespread reform necessary before any meaningful vote can be held.

中新网5月20日电
据外媒报道，在经历了数个月的反政府示威集会引起动荡后，泰国军方当地时间20日宣布全国军事戒严以让该国恢复秩序。
据报道，泰国军方一家电视台宣布了戒严消息，其目的旨在让各方民众的生活恢复平静和秩序，军方强调这一行动并非“政变”。
消息还称，泰国民众不需要因戒严而惊慌，他们可以继续按平常的日子生活。报道称，目前仍不清楚泰国军方这一行动是否由看守政府总理授权。
此前一天，反政府群体“民主改革人民委员会”示威者，在素帖等核心领导人带领下兵分5路，前往泰看守政府内阁成员办公地要求其辞职。素帖此前曾声言，如果在26日还不能成功迫使看守政府辞职，他27日就会结束抗争活动并向警方自首。
同时当天，泰看守政府代总理尼瓦探隆在与国会上议院部分议员讨论当前该国政局的会议后称，他不会为了成立所谓的临时政府铺平道路而辞去看守政府代总理职务。
此外，泰中央选举委员会成员颂猜18日表示，因受时间限制，目前看原暂定于7月20日的大选已无法按计划举行，因此选委会与看守政府将不得不另行确定一个新的选举日期。
