"I am horrified by reports of the airstrikes by #Myanmar fighter jets on a community hall in the Sagaing region.
I firmly believe the international justice processes now underway will one day hold the military leadership accountable for such crimes."
As many as 80 people, including children, are feared dead following an air raid carried out by Myanmar’s military #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar https://t.co/yUNS6YFQ2f
People were gathered ahead of Myanmar’s Thingyan festival - the biggest holiday of the year. First the junta sent a jet with bombs and then a helicopter gunship. Many children were among the dead #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar https://t.co/QroafNBTYn
We appreciate a joint statement by the #EU and twenty other countries on Myanmar’s Armed Forces Day. Myanmar people continue to resist the tyrant military to claim their freedom and a democratic future. World must support courageous Myanmar people.
The Myanmar junta's troops are accused of "killing at least 35 villagers who were fleeing combat on Christmas Eve and of then burning their bodies." Photographs "show the charred remains of bodies in the back of three trucks." https://t.co/u3hjljfA0h
Recently leaked documents show that Myanmar junta leader Senior General Min Aung Hlaing "is personally concerned that Myanmar’s oil and gas revenues keep flowing to the junta." That's why they need to be targeted -- to stop funding the junta's repression. https://t.co/9d2QDGPNW3
In Yangon’s #Twantay town, military junta’s forcing ppl to close shops today(Dec11) for taking part in nationwide #SilentStrike, by gunfiring. They threatened that they’ll shoot if someone go outside or open shops and now forcing civilians to close shops for 7 days.
#Dec11Coup
Yet another example of how the #Tatmadaw junta in #Myanmar are celebrating #HumanRightsDay , with beatings & killings continuing unabated as the community (too) politely asks for assurances which will not be forthcoming from the SAC junta. #WhatsHappeninglnMyanmar#HumanRights
