The military council bombed Kyauk Ni Maw village in Ram BiyaeTownship, Rakhine State, killing 40 people, including the elderly and children, and there are still missing people. The village was bombed without any fighting. The village was a small fishing village on the coast, so the bombing and fire caused extensive damage. The military council’s bombing caused severe fires in the south, middle and north of the village, burning down 398 houses, including many elderly people and children. The death toll could rise as there are still missing people whose bodies have not been found. The AA said the action was a cowardly act by the military council.
The military council, which is losing the war in Rakhine State, has targeted civilians in areas where there has been no fighting, destroying hospitals, clinics, schools, religious buildings, markets, If the continued bombing of roads, bridges, and residential areas by aircraft and heavy weapons continues, the country will continue to face serious attacks.
