Chein Khar Li village
administer told our news that 60 soldiers with heavy and small arms are firing
randomly when they are coming from Done Paik police station at 9 am this morning
and heading to the north.
“They are firing small
and heavy guns thought out the road. All residents from Done Paik and Chin Khar
Li villages are fleeing because they are very afraid to get killed,” the
administrator said.
He said 6 elder men and
women are still trapping inside the village including his mother.
The administrator said,
“I have seen all the dead and wounded villagers. I am shocked. They are
innocent villagers, and we have grown up together. The old and respected
elderlies are gone out of our community.”
The administrator said
Myanmar soldiers are still reaming in the village at this moment we are writing
this news at 6.67 pm in Myanmar time.
Some local residents
told our news agency they heard Myanmar army and Arakan Army are fighting 600
yards in the north after Chein Khar Li police station.
They said the military
might have been suffered during the clash with AA. Thus, the soldiers are
turning back to the village and killing the civilians for revenge and racial
hatred.
The reseidnts said they
have heard several young villagers have been arrested by the military but they
cannot go out and look for them since the army is still in the village and
firing guns to everywhere.
Two villages women were
wounded in Aung Bla village when the Myanmar military was shooting directly
into the residents in last weekend.
Since last Saturday,
three civilians have been killed and 5 villagers injured by the Myanmar army
senselessly firing guns and shells into the populated town and villages,
including 70 years old town resident in Ponnaygun.
“More civilians are
killed and injured by the armed forces senseless spraying guns and shelling
into the residential areas. It is very sad we have lost the lives of innocent
and unarmed civilians. Rakhine communities are unprotected and vulnerable. All
lawmakers in Rakhine State have to stand up and complain the President about
the senseless killing and injuring the civilians. Otherwise, it will never
end,” said U Khin Maung Latt, a lawmaker from Rathedaung township.
Analysts said Myanmar
military is intentionally shooting and shelling into all villages on the
highway from Ah Ngu Maw to Maungdaw in order to clear all villages along the
way as they did to Rohingya villagers in 2017.
Arakan Army Spokesperson
Khine Thu Kha had told our news agency previously Aung San Suu Kyi government
does not protect Rakhine people but supporting the military.
He said international
community’s effective actions against the military and to bring perpetrators to
international justice will end the atrocities of brutal military, and once for
all.
Note. Kyaw Aye is
changed from original name due to his personal security.
