Myanmar Army massacres Arakanese villagers



By the time Myanmar Army was hijacking 275 civilians in Rathedaung township’s Kyauk Tan village, Arakan (western Myanmar) on 2.5.2019, Seven detained Arakanese villagers were killed and eight were wounded. Since Tuesday, Myanmar Army detained to interrogate them about possible links to a nearby alleged Arakan Army (AA) training camp. Civilians were taken to village school premises and surrounded by over 300 Myanmar forces. Poor villagers were ordered to stay under the burning sun and under the open sky at night too.

At 2 a.m ,on 3.5.2019, a village woman heard gunshots from school premises. “It was over 20 shots” she said.

Myanmar Army’s irresponsible spokesman Zaw Min Tun said “ villagers attempted to grab
guns from soldiers”. But nobody believes him because his information was always complete fabrication. Arakan Army’s spokesman Khaing Thuka said “we think this is a plot made up by the Myanmar military to cover up their atrocities against the villagers” 

Myanmar Army is now regularly killing Arakanese people after Aung San Suu Kyi called for her Army to launch military operation against the Arakan Army in Arakan. Moreover, Myanmar Army is burgling every village while clashes happen with Arakan Army nearby villages and loots by massacring villagers.
