The Arakanese boy killed by MRLS of Myanmar Army and two other were severely injured

The 13 year old Arakanese boy named Maung Aung Myo Naing was killed and a 12-year old boy, named Maung Aung Myo Win and a 4-year old girl named Thein May Oo were severely injured by Myanmar Army’s Multiple Rocket Launcher System (MRLS) in the Kharu Chaung village, northern Arakan(western Myanmar).The victims were siblings. The injured brother and sister were admitted to sittwe hospital.

Due to Myanmar Army’s shelling on Kharu Chaung village, the siblings and their villagers fled and took refuge at village monastery recently. On 28.4.2019, Myanmar Army started again shelling and launching its MRLS rockets nearby village automatically. Unfortunately, one of those rockets landed and hit the sibling while they were playing near the monastery.

Meanwhile, Myanmar Army killed three villagers during interrogation process after column of

Myanmar Army abducted 27 villagers from Lakka village in ancient city of Mrauk Oo , Arakan on April 10.   Myanmar Army admitted the death of villagers during interrogation but they told only that villagers were passing away because of heart attack. And bodies of villagers were too not handed over to families. Members of families met cabinet of Arakan, on April 28, to get justice.

However , Nobel Peace Laureate Aung San Suu Kyi and  the irresponsible war criminal Myanmar Army chief , Min Aung Haling, also remained tight-lipped about the fact and does not seem to take action against the murders of their soldiers who killed three Arakanese villagers during interrogation.

Clash broke out between Myanmar Army and Kachin Independence Army

Myanmar Army had declared unilateral ceasefire in all of ethnic regions except in the lost Arakan to Myanmar ( western Myanmar) particularly to launch military operation against the Arakan Army for just four months. However, Myanmar Army broke its unilateral ceasefire in northern Shan State by attacking to Kachin Independence Army, a few days ago, when it was unable to crush Arakan Army and it did not want forthcoming meeting between the Kachin Independence Army and PCG of Myanmar Government. The meeting is known to make bilateral agreement between the KIA and Myanmar or Burma. Arakan Army is also expected to attend it.

In northern Shan State’s Muse Distrait, Light Infantry Division 99 of Myanmar Army started to seize a village of Howa and attacked battalion No. 36 of Kachin Independence Army.

Myanmar Army’s offensive attacks took place in the last week of a four-month unilateral ceasefire declared by Myanmar Army in December 2018.

Meanwhile, Myanmar Army’s offensive attacks against the Arakan Army is also badly going on in Arakan. Due to Myanmar Army’s shelling and bombing on villages in northern Arakan, there are, right now, over 35000 Internally Displaced Persons across the five townships in which a curfew was imposed by Myanmar Government controlled by Myanmar Army to colonize Arakan continually one way and another.

Since April 19, 2019, Myanmar Army launched artillery fire on the villages again , accusing every Arakanese villager and civilian as member of Arakan Army. Poor villagers were just to flee from their villages to nearby places with just only clothes on their bodies. No local aid group is allowed to help humanitarian and relief aid to IDPs. It is pain from very bottom of heart that we, Arakan, feel never before in history after our nation was occupied by Myanmar or Burma.

Mrs.Aung San Suu Kyi is main accomplice in killing Arakanese people

Myanmar Government led by Aung San Suu Kyi is an accomplice in killing Arakanese people while Myanmar Army is massacring Arakanese people nowadays. Almost everyday, one way and another, Myanmar Army kills, persecutes, loots, rapes and arsons Arakanese people and villages because Aung San Suu Kyi called for her Army to do so in the name of military

operation against the Arakan Army which was given birth to free Arakan from Myanmar by Arakanese people.

The oppressed Arakanese people under the Myanmar rule are, in the world, actually, becoming destitute people without future because Arakanese people are being killed in their own land everyday by Myanmar occupier or Myanmar Army (Arakan is the lost nation to Myanmar).

A woman attempted to rape by Myanmar Army man

Just one day back, one dead Arakanese man - whom Myanmar Army fastened with ropes on legs, attaching with stones – was found on the bank of river after the tide was going out and another woman - who had been weeding her plantation at nearby village - was forced to rape by a solider of Myanmar Army.

Due to Myanmar Army’s offensive attacks against the Arakan Army after Aung San Suu Kyi directed on her war criminal Myanmar Army to crush Arakan Army, There are nearly 30,000 displaced persons in Arakan. No Myanmar minister is coming to assist them and brutally,

Myanmar Government and its Army are also banning all local and international organizations to access Arakanese Internally Displaced Persons to help humanitarian aid.

Moreover, Local charity groups like New Generation of Rakhine Youth Charity Association was

blocked by Myanmar police for fund raising at Zaygyi market in Sittwe – capital of Arakan – while Myanmar Army together with Government of Myanmar  led by Aung San Suu Kyi ,intentionally, is materializing four cuts policy to eliminate Arakan Army.

The number of IDPs in the lost Arakan to Myanmar has reached to nearly 30,000 and they are in dire need of emergency aid such as foods, clothing, shelters and other relief items. However, Myanmar government led by Aung San Suu Kyi , cruelly, without compassion and fellow feeling, is blocking  all kind of humanitarian aids to IDPs whom Aung San Suu Kyi and Myanmar Army seem to treat as their enemy even if they were innocent villagers.  

As we all know, Myanmar has gotten an inhuman the last will and testament of their then cunning politician Mr. Mine as legacy. The will left by Mr. Mine was selfishness of Burma or Myanmar and it was brutal, atrocious, inhuman and criminal against the ethnics of Myanmar and Arakan. Every Myanmar politician and Army man implements this will of legacy and follows it by one way and another. Therefore, it is sure that there will be never ever good image of Myanmar or Burma in the civilized world.

Nighttime curfew imposed in five townships in Arakan

Myanmar Army -  which is considered to be one among the worst in the world – recommended

Myanmar Government led by Aung San Suu Kyi to impose curfew in five townships in Arakan on the ground of ongoing clashes between the Arakan Army and Myanmar Army on 2.3.2019. Therefore, partnership with cruel war criminal Myanmar Army, Government of Myanmar led by Aung San Suu Kyi imposed a curfew in line along with section 144 in five townships in northern Arakan.

In northern Arakan, there are (30000) internally displaced persons who had to flee

from their village to IDPs camps because of notorious Myanmar Army’s killing, persecuting and threatening. Myanmar Army shelled every village in northern Arakan on the accusation of being tied with Arakan Army and raiding every village in daylight hours. 

Shooting, looting and abducting villagers, Myanmar Army used to commit war crime in Arakan. Now, they have more opportunity to commit war crimes in the night also by imposing curfew in five townships.

Due to curfew, no civilian can travel from village to village and within wards of towns in the night. Myanmar Army can only move from place to place. Even if villagers suffer from disease seriously at night, they cannot go to hospital and they are not provided ambulance.

Even in daylight, Myanmar Army has done arson to Arakanese villages and then they were killing, looting and abducting Arakanese people. However, Myanmar Army falsified from its media to people by giving misinformation that they did not commit anything. 

If  Myanmar Army set fire a village at night after it imposed a curfew,  no villager of other villages will not be able to receive information in time correctly because villagers cannot travel but only Myanmar Army can.

Oo Hla Saw, an ANP leader and Rakhine National lawmaker who represents Mrauk-U in Myanmar’s lower house of parliament, told RFA that local authorities did not state a reason for the curfew when they announced it publicly in his township.

Arakan Army(AA )spokesperson Khine Thukha said the curfew will pose difficulties for organizations that are providing assistance to internally displaced persons (IDPs) and limit their workers’ movement in the region.

“We think the move could lead to the worst instead of advancing to peace,” he said. “The Myanmar Army has been sending reinforcements both in weapons and manpower, so we can see signs that larger ‘rooting-out’ operations are underway following the curfew order.”

Myanmar Army commits war crime again by killing and abducting villagers

Myanmar Army again committed war crime in Arakan, western part of Myanmar,

by killing two villagers and wounding seriously seven villagers on 29.3.2019.

In morning, around 6:30 am, on 29.3.2019, Myanmar Army started shooting machine

guns and launchers from Tein Nyo bridge into Aut Tha Kan village, shouting the whole

time abusive word “ F---king Arakan”  while firing and entering into village.

The deceased were two women and one of those was pregnant woman who was in

her grocery , selling food and other things to her own villagers in Aut Tha Kan village.

Local media wrote that injured persons were admitted to hospital in Mrauk-U Town and some media persons told that villagers were forced to sit on the ground under the sun’s ray by putting hands on head. 

At the same time, village elder men were kicked on head and chest with military boots by Myanmar Army men. Youths were also pounded with butt of gun and were inserted with muzzle of gun on chest.  When Myanmar Army left village on the same day, they abducted five villagers away with them. The family members of abductees were in lament. No Myanmar Officer holds accountable.

Arakan American Community demonstrates against the brutal Myanmar Army's war crimes

Arakan Americans from Arakan American Community in USA – roughly, nearly four hundreds-  gathered in front of With House and Myanmar Embassy on 25.3.2019. They demonstrated against the brutal Myanmar Army’s war crimes in Arakan, western Myanmar and demanded to stop Myanmar Army’s brutal killing on Arakanese people in Arakan.

Moreover, they demanded UN, US and International organizations that brutal Myanmar Army should not be allowed to buy arms from developed nations and it should be taken action by International Criminal Court on the ground of committing war crimes against the humanity.

A poor family of Arakan National killed in cold blood by brutal Myanmar Army

Myanmar Army – war criminal – currently is killing 

Arakanese villagers in the lost Arakan to Myanmar everyday.  Arakan  was once free Nation ,which presently is

being colonized by Myanmar, and is situated on the east coast line of Bay of Bengal.

The coast line is called “ Arakan Coast Line “

Nowadays, Myanmar leader, Aung San Suu Kyi, instructs her war criminal Myanmar Army to eliminate Arakan Army in Arakan – western part of Myanmar. Therefore, war criminal Myanmar Army launches offensive attacks against the Arakan Army. Moreover, Myanmar Army is killing Arakanese people on the accusation of being tied with Arakan Army.

On March 22, 2019, in northern Arakan, Myanmar Army shelled the village named Si taung from outside of village and then entered into village. While Myanmar Army shelled and entered,

villagers, in fear, were fleeing from their homes. Unfortunately, a family comprised five persons

-Grandma (95),father (55),mother (55),elder son (23) and youngest son(19)- were trapped and hiding in the makeshift bomb shelter or trench at their home but column of Myanmar Army found out them and opened fire in close range. Atrocious and brutal Myanmar Army killed a Arakanese poor family in cold blood.

Local media published this but it told that a family was killed by shelling bomb of Myanmar Army on village. 

The fact which people became to know is that after war criminal Myanmar Army retreated from Si Taung village, Local youths and relatives enquired situation of village. They recorded video and found the fact that poor Arakanese family were shot in close range in makeshift trench by brutal Myanmar Army.

Myanmar Army opens fire every house in Mrauk-U, Arakan

On these days, Myanmar Army entered Mrauk-U town in Arakan , which is being colonized by Myanmar , by trucks and opened fire into houses and buildings. By the time it entered into town, the sun has gone down. Myanmar Army men from the trucks started shooting into every house from the tamarize ward to other wards by driving their trucks in high gear, yelling abusive words “ Fucking Arakan “  or “ Lo Ma Thar Rakhine” .

Every night the sun went down, Myanmar Army appeared to enter Mrauk-U town to open fire

houses of Arakanese people from driving trucks on these days. Therefore, there were at least(10) persons who had injured and were admitted to hospital in Mrauk-U.  Houses in every ward and a private Bank are hit by bullets and small millimeter mortars.

Mrauk-U town is ancient city of Arakan Kingdom. It is heart of Arakan National and heritage

site. Many ancient pagodas and Buddha Statues are seen everywhere in Mrauk-U . But it is no matter for Myanmar Army. So, Arakan national heritage site like Buddha statues and pagodas were also fired by Myanmar Army. One of sacred pagoda was bombed and one of images of Buddha was also fired by Myanmar Army. It is believed that Myanmar Army will never destroy its own heritage sites and Buddha pagodas but dares to demolish Arakan’s .

The reason why Myanmar Army dares to fire on civilians and heritage sites in Mrauk-U  is that it is losing its soldiers everyday while attacking to Arakan Army. The death toll of Myanmar Army is so much high while they launch offensive attacks against the 

Arakan Army.

Hence, they cowardly started to kill, persecute, arrest, loot and rape Arakanese people, committing war crime against the humanity . Myanmar Army’s chief and culprit Myanmar

leaders are most likely to be in the International Criminal Court for their guilt soon because ICC is working hard to take legal action against the culprit Chief of Myanmar Army and culprit Myanmar political leaders. 

Myanmar Air Force strafes rockets on position of Arakan Army after it loses strategic base

The strategic base of Myanmar Army was occupied on 10.3.2019 in northern Arakan

by Arakan Army after fierce clashes between the Arakan Army and Myanmar Army.

During the period of occupation,  Arakan Army captured eleven

Myanmar soldiers and seized many ammunitions and weapons of Myanmar Army.

According to Arakan Army’s website, it is taking care of eleven prisoners of war and

materializing to hand over them to international organization like Red Cross.

Arakan Army has already handed over prisoners of war to International Committee of

Red Cross (ICRC) once in previous years.

After Myanmar Army lost its tactical base, it again launched offensive attacks against

the Arakan Army by using fighter jets. On 13.3.2019, Myanmar Air Force bombed and

strafed rockets on position of Arakan Army in northern Arakan hitting villages. Therefore,

villagers, in fear, are fleeing from their villages to nearby places. Nowadays, Internally

Displaced Persons (IDPs) are over ten thousands in northern Arakan due to offensive attacks

of Myanmar Army. But Myanmar government does not allow any organization including UN

to access IDPs to help humanitarian aid.  IDPs are facing lack of foods and shelters and suffering from diseases like dysentery because of no clean water.

With everyday clashes between the Myanmar Army and Arakan Army in the lost Arakan to Myanmar (western Myanmar), fighting has dominated all over rural areas and towns. In these

circumstances, Myanmar Army is violating human rights and committing war crimes on civilians

and Arakanese villagers by killing, persecuting, raping, looting, arresting and threatening.

Landmine set by Myanmar Army kills Arakanese elder man

Column of Myanmar Army left landmines in Mrauk Oo Township in Arakan ,western Myanmar, without clearing them after it stationed near the village named Aoug Tha Kan.

As we all know, Myanmar Army ignores to sign at UN for no landmines and it still is using

Landmines like 14-mine and 16-mine in the battles against the Arakan Army which

represents people of Arakan to free from Myanmar. Just one day back, that was after

clash between the Arakan Army and Myanmar Army on 5.3.2019, unfortunately,

three persons from Aoug Tha Kan village, in Mrauk Oo Township, went to their plantation and

their own small hill to fetch firewood. They did not know that Myanmar Army stationed and

left landmines there. They stepped on one of landmines

set by Myanmar Army.

 

No sooner had

landmine blasted than one of three persons named Mr. Tun Sein died(aged 68). He lost both of his legs when landmine exploded . Remaining two persons injured on knees and back respectively .

Myanmar Army is killing, persecuting, arresting, looting and executing Arakanese people and

bombing on villages. Moreover, it is firing into villages while it enters villages to kill and loot villagers.
