A body count that would make a dictator blush. Sources confirm to The Investigative Desk that the Myanmar military, the Tatmadaw, has slaughtered at least 700 civilians in the past six months. The victims include children, the elderly, and those caught in the crossfire of a junta that answers to no one.
This isn't a war. This is a massacre, documented in leaked military logs and corroborated by field workers who risk their lives to report the truth. Britain, finally stirring from its diplomatic slumber, has backed a UN sanctions push.
But sanctions are a Band-Aid on a bullet wound. The junta's generals, with their Swiss bank accounts and Chinese arms deals, won't blink at a few frozen assets. The question is: what will it take to stop the killing?
The world watches, and the bodies pile up.
