A cargo ship full of civilians fleeing war-torn Rakhine State was finally allowed to leave a junta naval base in Ayeyarwady Region’s Ngapudaw Township on Monday after being detained there for more than a week, according to sources familiar with the situation.
The ship, the Shwe La Min 5, was on its way to Yangon when it was detained last week at the Pammawady Naval Regional Command base on Hainggyi Island, the sources said.
