Myanmar airstrikes on Rakhine displacement camps kill eight
Original: Myanmar military airstrikes on Rakhine displacement camps kill eight, rebel group says
Myanmar's military carried out airstrikes on displacement camps in Rakhine state, killing eight people, according to the Arakan Army, the rebel group controlling much of the region. The reported deaths add to a mounting civilian toll as the junta escalates air attacks in its war against ethnic armed forces. Independent verification is difficult given restricted access to the conflict area.
Why now: The reported civilian deaths in an ongoing and escalating civil war are drawing international attention.
