Myanmar’s military carried out deadly air strikes in the central region of Sagaing, which is known for its opposition to military rule
A local monitoring group reports that over 3,200 civilians have lost their lives and more than 21,300 have been detained following the 2021 coup .
The Sagaing region - near the second-largest city Mandalay - has put up some of the fiercest resistance to the military's rule, with intense fighting raging for months. A rescuer - connected to an anti-coup People's Defence Force group - told AFP news agency that women and children were among the dead.
Myanmar's National Unity Government , a shadow body dominated by former lawmakers from ousted civilian leader Aung San Suu Kyi's party, condemned the strike as a "heinous act". Myanmar has been in chaos and its economy in tatters since the military seized power in February 2021.
