Nine civilians killed by Myanmar junta attacks south of Monywa

Writer: Saw Kyaw OoSaw Kyaw Oo

Junta air and artillery attacks killed at least nine people and injured more than two dozen others south of the Sagaing Region capital Monywa on Wednesday, local residents and resistance forces said.


The attacks began at around 7:30pm, when troops stationed at a regime outpost in the village of Ma-U, on the southern edge of Monywa, began shelling Bu Ba, a village some four miles to the south, killing at least two women.


This was followed a little more than an hour later by air raids on four other villages farther south in Monywa and Chaung-U townships, sources told Myanmar Now.
