We welcome the UN Security Council's long overdue condemnation of the barbaric genocidal military generals in Myanmar, their war crimes, and their unlawful and despicable executions of democratic leaders Ko Jimmy, Ko Phyo Zeya Thaw, Ko Hla Myo Aung and Ko Aung Thura Zaw ...
1st execution in 30 years in #Burma! Outrageous & unacceptable execution of 4 political prisoners by junta shows depths of depravity to which Min Aung Hlaing & #Tatmadaw commanders prepared to sink. When is world going do something about crimes against humanity in #Myanmar? @hrw
The Myanmar junta’s execution of four men, including of activist Ko Jimmy and opposition lawmaker Phyo Zeya Thaw, following grossly unjust and politically motivated military trials is an act of utter cruelty. Their families weren't even notified. https://t.co/GWYroTV1kr
As we argued in June, executing prisoners is a deeply provocative act that will worsen the cycle of violence, violates the religion and culture the military claims to protect, and makes negotiations even more unlikely

UPDATE | Prison officials told the families of the executed activists on Monday morning that they were not required under the law to release their bodies.

I'm devastated by news that former parliamentarian Zeyar Thaw and longtime activist Ko Jimmy were executed with two others today. UN Member States must honor their lives by making this depraved act a turning point for the world's response to this crisis. My statement attached.
GRAPHIC: At least 11 civilians have been tied and burned today in Salingyi Township, Sagaing Region, Myanmar. Locals said that they heard the groaning and asking help from that place but couldn’t help. #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar
People are banging pots again tonight in #Yangon, in response to the killings that happened hours ago.
No one's blood has gone cold.
Watch here to see them call and respond to each other as they protest from their homes.

Imagine how many other scenes like this haven't been caught on film. Imagine all the atrocities suffered by Rohingya communities because they were committed out of view.
This unhinged violence is sickening. What is also sickening is the fact that so many still do biz with them.
