The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs and Development in the country said the military committed war crimes during clashes with rebels in the Myanmar city of Minbia. In a statement, the agency said the casualties in Minbia between November and January were clearly war crimes.
The statement claimed that 30 civilians were killed in three months of military attacks in the city of Minbia. Which amounts to genocide. In addition, the junta forces have also committed war crimes such as rape, killing women and burning towns and villages.
The junta forces have deliberately targeted towns and villages in defiance of the rules of war. The battalion used a variety of tactics, including artillery shelling from camps, airstrikes, artillery fire from military vessels, and arrests of civilians. The United Nations statement also mentions that one person involved in the attack confessed to these crimes.
