Myanmar airstrike on detention camp kills dozens, armed opposition group says
Briefly

The Arakan Army reported that a military jet bombed a temporary detention area in Mrauk-U Township, resulting in 28 deaths, including nine children, during an ongoing conflict.
Photos of the aftermath depicted a haunting scene with bodies covered in white sheets as grieving individuals surrounded the tragic site, marking a disturbing escalation in Rakhine.
This incident highlights the intense conflict in Rakhine state since the coup in 2021, underscoring the junta's persistent airstrikes against civilian areas amidst widespread armed resistance.
The military's failure to acknowledge civilian presence in the detention area raises questions about targeting accuracy or whether the strike was deliberate amidst the ongoing violence.
