Human rights groups are accusing Myanmar’s military of committing a mass killing against civilians as they intensify an offensive against rebel forces in Kayah state.
The Save the Children charity says two staff members were caught up in the violence and are missing.
The violence follows a week of government bombing and artillery fire that has forced thousands of people from their homes.
But there is fierce resistance from local ethnic groups.

Do Good, Reap Good;

Peaceful Buddhism strikes again 😂
@Nicola Tesla jr 🐄💩🤢🤮
@BHAWESH cow worshippers are the last people to talk about terror
@le Arsene show I in ISIS stand for Ice Cream 😂👌
what is the connection between religion and national crisis.
Yeah, just like the peaceful religoin of Christianity which launched the crusades, including one armed by naive children sent off to the holy land to never return, or the one that was profesed by King Leopold as he sent his colonial troops into the Congo to hack off arms of African natives, or like the one professed by Christian nationlists in the USA who relished in slave-owning, genocide of indigenous peoples, and the establishment of apartheid in the antebellum south. I guess Buddhists learned a great deal from the “forgive thy neighbor” relgion, lol. Stop your moral supremacism…it only makes you look like a fool.
They locked Rohingya in house and burned them alive. When a woman tried to escape, they snatched her baby from her arms and threw him in fire 🔥 then they r*p*d the woman then cut her throat and left her for dead.
Miraculously, she regained consciousness a few hours later and then fled to Bangladesh.
They hunted down women, children and elderly people who were fleeing and hacked them with knives/machetes.
They did not even allow them to leave without stabbing and torturing them first.
Tula Toli Masacre.
@100 years ago Where is the mass genocide in Palestine ? what’s happening is bad but it’s not the definition of genocide. the numbers and the method does not simply account to one.
@le Arsene show yes but when Macron defended the drawings of Mohammed the whole of the Muslim world protested in each french embassy with rage. . . I never saw that for China. even they turn a blind eye
@The Vineyard They didn’t commit any crimes! The military wanted them out and launched strategically planned disinformation campaigns on Facebook accusing Rohingya people of being terrorists, branding them as illegal immigrants from Bangladesh, followed by a brutal military crackdown on Rohingya villages. Facebook has admitted it didn’t do more to stem a torrents of racist posts over the years that followed.
@The Vineyard Myanmar’s 1982 citizenship law, which grants nationality along ethnic lines, led to the exclusion of the Rohingya and several other ethnic minority groups from full citizenship. After the law came into effect, many Rohingya submitted their old identity documents (many of which established their claim to citizenship) to obtain new citizenship documents. Most were either not given new documents or provided with ‘temporary registration cards’, which did not recognise them as citizens. Similarly, many Rohingya who had undergone ‘citizenship verification’ after 2014 also had their old documents confiscated. This process of citizenship verification and denial reinforces the Myanmar military’s inaccurate claim that the Rohingya are illegal immigrants who should be expelled.
@The VineyardA high-profile lawsuit has been filed in California against Facebook parent Meta Platforms seeking over $150 billion for the company’s alleged failure to stop hateful posts that incited violence against the Muslim Rohingya minority by Myanmar’s military and its supporters.
Separatist has supported by Indian army
As shown in video a Indian flag is visible
@le Arsene show Do not hurt my feelings cow is my mother, she gave birth to hindus. 🥰.. In hindu religion we worship manmade idols, made from soil. they are our gods. jai shri ram
They represent god. Kinda like part of tenple. Also hindus are monotheist as well as polyathesist and also atheist.some pray in front of representational statue and some
meditate in alone.
Finally Indian rss terrorist organization has to confront with loyal Myanmar army
@Prabhat Saundary Kulshrestha vishnus vraha avatar is a PIG and thats what u people worship.
@No One yes we worship every thing not like some other who doesn’t know what they are are worshiping .may be they also worship pigs.
Myanmar needs to be colonized again by UK
@Vijay V show data.
After 1971, Pakistan was divided and thus the Hindu Population split between pak and Bangladesh thus causing Hindu population% to be smaller individually.
@Kaif Shaikh
Bangladesh Hindu percentage by year
1941 = 28%
1951 = 22%
1961 = 18%
1974 = 13%
1981 = 12%
1991 = 10%
2001 = 9%
2011 = 8%
@Vijay V first watch the video then talk
@Vijay V dada Bangladesh ma our political people killing innocent people
our prime ministers she is for india not for own country.
Actually the Burma conflicts is a results from England colonies. They promised to give Karen, Kachin, Shan, a country, but that never happens.
Peaceful Buddhists spreading peace in Myanmar 🤗❤️
dont say stupid stuff , this is 100 percent a dictator vs civilian conflict, the only cult which spreads peace is a desert cult..
just now. . . democratic Republic of Congo. religion of peace being spread. where else Buddhists spreading their peace? that’s right no where
@BHAWESH jai cowdung lamb
Mostly 52.5mil Buddhists in the country are right “peaceful” except less than 0.005% of population are no religion terrorists military using religion as a tool to destroy the country.
@byron 2456 cow religion 😂
When the those in power resort to tyranny , there’s left no solution except self defense
All refugees welcome in Germany
@Chaos Stone diversity doesnt work in the real world contrary to some western nation this isn’t a fantasy land where theirs no conflict on other culture and race not everyone is a cuckold and suicidal people
@le Arsene show คุณเป็นคนตลก 5555
@le Arsene show haha bro you believe I am a Indian, haha I am mongliloid.
@le Arsene show west is falling cuz their enemy take advantage their free democracy government , now it is the age of Asian rule the world again in power and economy.
“East Asia could surpass all western nations’ combined economies as early as 2030. South Asia could soon follow if the hundreds of millions in poverty continue to be lifted into middle class.” Including my country Thailand.
The Burma conflicts is a result from England colonies, not Germany.
The same things their army did which the civilians+army did with the minorities in the past …
Myanmar politicians should face front of ICC!
There aren’t any now; the military seized power and is running things now…
Soon they will hav to face
QATAR should take refugees.
why would Qatar take refugees when you have your “super power india”, that is very humane towards refugees and poor people 🤣
@le Arsene show muslim Countries don’t even care about their fellow muslim people
Do western christians care about their poor fellow christian people in Latin America and Africa ?
Islam is for all mankind but Muslim countries are not showing enough humanity.
EU & USA provide citizenship but rich arab countries don’t give proper human rights to foreign workers let alone citizen rights.
😂😂😂
Islam itself is a joke.
Most of the people wants citizenship of EU, Canada, Australia & USA because these countries have more access & human rights protection than Islam world.
If Western world declare free citizenship for arab countries, most of the Muslim countries will be vacant.
Allah is good Justice but his followers are opposite.
@le Arsene show Yes.
and neither russia, nor the west cares. because burmese military buys weapons from both sides
Asean community won’t supported on civil war , no lethal should be lifted to conflict
Kmu of Myanmar is Indian rss wing
Where is virathu.🤣🤣🤣🤣
@Carl Grissom He got Covid while he was in prison and was in very bad shape when he came out with severe health issues.
Guess his karma caught up with him.
@Christiane Vanherck No problem replacing him in Nay Pyi Taw with those shameless opportunistic senior monks who have betrayed their followers for a (large) handful of gold leaf for their pagodas.
@mitsunori222000 Yes, it is difficult to understand what kind of monks they are. Bhaddanta Kawisara, who holds the highest religious title of Abhidhaja Maha Rattha Guru died in a plane crash last June, which is a very inauspicious sign for the junta. That monk has been known to regularly receive support from Myanmar’s military generals to open new pagodas. Min Aung Hlaing visited Bhaddanta Kawisara on February 2, to receive the monk’s blessings one day after the military chief seized power in a coup.
@Christiane Vanherck He’s not going to jail he’s a military supporter
@Tip top Read again, he came out of jail nobody says he’s going to jail.
This is what happened before: An arrest warrant was issued for that speech in May 2019 on grounds of sedition and slander. After a year and a half of evading arrest, he surrendered to the police in Yangon a week before the 2020 Myanmar general election, and got arrested. In September 2021, the sedition charges against Wirathu were dismissed by the military junta, and he was subsequently released.
Pedo worshippers are very happy today…
Remember the Chinese govt is supporting the junta regime with weapons and ammunitions and also politically.
Myanmar has more than 130 ethnic minorities and nearly 20 independent armed forces. Many troops disobeyed the central government and demanded autonomy. These civil wars lasted 50 years. Until the recent coup made the situation worse.
In the past, they lived by selling opium. Now they sell jade and rare earth to China.
Also note that China kind off supports some of the armed groups like AA and Wa state.
@Aerojet Rocketdyne RS-25 that’s why the AA and wa army aren’t doing any fighting
please go to UK….UK welcomes all…. Queen has money…..get money!!!!
The UK is a poor country and the Queen is bankrupt.
@Sunny John I’m not from the UK hahahaha
Lawless, Troublant , and failed country.
Including a 5 year old child was burned alive too😓
done by PDF under NUG.
@Wanjay Wan That’s not done by PDF. That’s the terrorist ( military council). Dude,you can’t hide the sun and the truth.
@Sasha Banks see the whole village was killed by PDF terrorists and useless military was not protecting the people. PDF collects the money in our area killing the green party members and no one heard the real news. They can hear only the fake news by main stream media.
When Rohangiya were burnt alive you all were strengthening army and even Aung San was standing with army ..you are reaping once you sowed…still we are with humanity and will support you against the cruel Myanmar army bcz we feel for humans
@Damien Dehorn I hope they’ll learn their mistakes this time.
There is a huge difference between removing an illegal Bangladeshi Muslim immigrant and to the murder of the native ethnicities of Myanmar. The Bangladeshi colonists were rightfully chased away, in a very kind and friendly way. You can not compare that with the killing of the ethnic minorities in Myanmar.
@Fjodor Tabularasa your IQ is pathetic
@Dr Muhammad ayyaz sarwar 🤣🤣🤣🤣.
I enjoy your comment.
A Bangladeshi colonist forfeits all rights when they illegally settle in Rakhine state, or Assam, or anywhere. A criminal must be dealt harshly with. I hope they people of Myanmar will unite to atleast evict all illegal immigrants, untill not a single one is left and untill all are back in their motherland Bangladesh.
@Damien Dehorn the Bamar freed their country from illegal colonists. They gently guided the colonists back to Bangladesh. Some of the colonists decided to continue their decade old campaign of murder, rape and pillage against the Rakhine people. The Rakhine people stood up and defended themselves, and many terrorists died as a result, rather unfortunate!. As for your claim that the Bamar are racist, they are not. I often tell them about how the West looks now with all the colonists here. They look horrified and many said they would never allow that in their country. You know, to have flowers blossom, you need to plant seeds first. I see myself as a botanist.
How could I believe you after you have done the false narrative to Ethiopia…
Any one from Myanmar 🇲🇲 who could tell me the truth?
The truth is already in the video.
Myanmar National Military seized the power and becomes Terrirost, and yes it’s true!
Okay thanks guys
The situation going worse because of the involvement of the c i a, to divide and conquer, to regime change, that’s their goal.
take your medicine. the military junta kill under the orders of the generals so they can keep power. military is killing people for decades and generations.
Ignoring rohingya mass killing was wrong, but also ignoring myanmar civilian killing is also wrong…… the world really need to take action. Put pressure on china to stop supporting myanmar army.
@Fjodor Tabularasa Blame British they told rohingyas that if they help, they get land in myanmar
@Fjodor Tabularasa no land belongs to anyone in a true sense…
@Damien Dehorn fyi do google please. Burmese didn’t support military for nothing.They didn’t know about their military abuses. One Rakhine ethnic girl was raped and Rakhine people killed by group of Rohingya men and Rakhine people responded back by killing the men.All villages conflicted and ARSA group comes up.They killed many Rakhine people . Military came in and supposed to stop ARSA.but they also killed innocents. So thus we Burmese became bad guys for everyone and I am sick of being one.
@Lwin Moe So now your saying its the fault of the Rohingya?
@Damien Dehorn read my comment again, I am just stating why most Burmese supported military during these times. I said innocents were also killed because that was the way of military and we didn’t know about it. There has been abuses by military far before Rohingya conflicts and we also didn’t know about that because we are under tyranny like in 1984. For one thing is sure,I didn’t support the military to kill innocents but to stop ARSA militants.
Karmas alive
@Pete Green I wasn’t born then.
@Damien Dehorn Somehow you seem to think that we are all blind and stupid. Wtf, it is totally obvious, the whole world knows what you are doing here. You are fully engaged in information combat, deflecting and lying your a$$ off.
Always the same old lame old blame game, nobody is buying it.
@Christiane Vanherck what did i say was a lie? Answer a couple of simple questions, has the NLD fully accepted the Rohingya genocide as per the UN? Does the NLD accept the Rohingya are Myanmar citizens?
@Damien Dehorn The only words posted by you in this comment thread that are not full-on lies are these: “The crime was done by the Myanmar military” period. I feel disgusted when I read your comments and I refuse to further engage in your disinformation combat.
@Christiane Vanherck Well keep making excuses for Aung San Ki if it make you feel better, but we know the truth.
Shame on UN and others for allowing this
@Christiane Vanherck
So why no one stop Myanmar from killing people everyday?
I don’t get it
@Nor Priest Only ccp can stop them!
UN has always been useless
@rr rr useless comment
@Christiane Vanherck donated food, blanket, clothes, because is cold there to the people and we the Karen people try our best help them
Its time to the Hebrews to step in the religion wars
Meu Deus tenha misericórdia desse país
My heart goes out to the departed and all afflicted 🙏
Army Is Traines to Destoy all Enemies you see
Making armed groups and militants as ‘victims’.
I wonder what Qatar would do if CIA sponsored ‘groups’ suddenly sprouted in Qatar?
Bangladesh should fund these rebels. Then annex lots of myanmar land
@Why are you running? doesnt matter. Gdp per capita is 1.5x more than myanmar. Bd = 2554 myanmar = 1490
Either way total gdp is 6x more which means its easier for bd to take myanmar
What a lame snake attitude. Because of the bad neighbors like B & C, the cruel military can stay a repressive regime. It is not like 18th century to annex other land which u never belong. Wake up u fanatic!
@Abdo Abdo Build toilets and use clean water first
@Abdo Abdo According to your logic, Finland can take over the US easily because they have higher GDP per capita. Incredible!
Bangladesh is a poor place and u want them to fund the rebels
Myanmar is a killer country …. In the name of army they do all terrorism.
Myanmar military is kill civilians everyday in very violence way.
Why doesn’t the west intervene in this crisis?
Because the last time the West intervene in Libya. There was strong condemnation by the very same people who cried for help. The liberals labelled it an “illegal war”. No countries would ever want to step in again, not after being betrayed by the public on foreign policies.
China should intervene.
@Christiane Vanherck well they are ccp and they dont like democracy
Myanmar coup is killing his own people, including innocent children and elderly, same with CCP China’s cultural revolution more than 40 millions Chinese died as results.
This will never end as long as men rule.
Men have always used technology to design new weapons of war. Gun-power created guns. The latest weapon of war is the internet. There will be wars in outer space unless power is taken away from men.
There has always been a solution: Let women rule.
“Of the past 3,400 years, humans have been entirely at peace for 268 of them, or just 8 percent of recorded history. At least 108 million people were killed in wars in the twentieth century. Estimates for the total number killed in wars throughout all of human history range from 150 million to 1 billion.” ~ New York Times
This is how that quote should read:
Of the past 3,400 years, men have been entirely at peace for only 268 of them. Women have been at peace for all 3,400 years.
There is a solution to the age-old problem of war:
The solution is for women to have the power that men now have, and to let men sit around gazing at their navels, waiting to be used for something that doesn’t involve killing … like opening jar lids.
Women have no need for war. They need peace and cooperation to raise their babies. They talk out problems, they don’t pick up a rock and smash a woman they don’t agree with. Women use power to help, not to hurt.
Give women all the power that men now have and then get out of the way of a tsunami of world-bettering laws…and no more war!
Rohingya had it worse
Bruh the Karen people have been face this before it been the longest civil war and your people can barely survive out here
When will Asean act to this? If this will get worst?
Read Fong’s Revolution as Development. The author held counsel with Gen Mya to write an awesome work when the latter was a Lt. Colonel. Long live the KNU and Col. Nerdah Mya. RIP Nesoe Mya. Stay in the Irrawaddy valley Tatmadaw, or give all Burmese a federalist state that would end all conflict!! If you can’t do that, the nations in the mountains deserve full independnce from Naypidaw and the endless tyranny you’ve meted out to the Burmese. Long live the KNU and never let another DKBA group form again! Kawthoolei forever!
I know Every Army Traines to Destroy all enemies
The world is watching nice
Are we not allowed to go on YouTube to watch international reports?
Military killed and burnt citizens.pls help citizens. Reject Military coup. UN take action now please.
What type of action should they take?
Every day Ajazeera news nursing new rebel group, no wonder why the Egyptians government got hold of their journalists for so long
My family members are from kayah/karenni state I’m rlu scared that something has happened to them. I’m trying to help as much as I can but I feel like it’s useless since No one is listening to me. I’m talking about this situation on social media too but people keep unfollowing me
😢😢😢😢
I feel for you may GOD protect them🙏🙏🙏
Useless United Nation in myanmar.
Chinese goverment spport myanmar military coup.
can not forgive…မင်းအောင်လှိုင်
Artillery and Airstrikes on Civilians.
Still, the world do Nothing.
According to you, what should the world do?
USA is setting fire all around China in the name containing and distroying China
Where is the icc
Proceedings against the Myanmar military are already under way at the International Criminal Court and the UN’s International Court of Justice.
Kind words and condolences are not enough! Sit by and watch another Rwanda or intervene?!
You can go ahead and intervene! Nobody is stopping you.
@Christiane Vanherck in years time you will say the world has done nothing and how cruel it is…say how terrible it is and go back eating your supper!
@Thx 1138 Many countries are providing humanitarian aid to help Myanmar people and are actively involved in cutting off the military money flow that’s funding their crimes against humanity.
Are you doing something besides ordering an intervention?
@Christiane Vanherck whataboutism! Sanctions are not enough and humanitarians aid goes to the junta! Do you honestly believe we could deal with the junta with talk all the while they continue to massacre people? This exactly what happened in rwanda, stop appeasong monsters and fight them
Aung Sang kept quiet during the Rohingya genocide and claimed it was nothing but lies. This latest violence against other groups proves her own lies.
@Zeeshan Dogar the only lowkey answer for you to understand is that, the position of National Leader and Party Leader role aren’t the same and no one will never be able to do it at the same time. FYI, even the former UN Chief and Nobel Peace Prize winner Kofi Annan (just like ASAK) stand for the same as ASSK after he went investigation to Myanmar in the same year. Why? Because he know there will be more atrocities if you put thar kind of case in a hush way. There’s solutions and committed with commission after that too. Is another former UN Chief and Nobel Peace Prize Winner just like ASSK is also a Devil to you too?
@Zeeshan Dogar actually you are the one who is dancing around the real issue in a desperate attempt to distract our attention away from these horrendous crimes against humanity. This video is not about the Rohingya genocide nor about Aung San Suu Kyi, it’s about the military killing innocent children and mothers.
@Christiane Vanherck yes it is. And instead of condemning it you are defending her. Had she spoken out sooner it would not have reached this point. She chose her position over human lives. Shame on snyone thsg supports her.
@madebyartant She is the leader of Myanmar not Kofi Anan, it is her responsibility to speak up. She kept quiet about the killings for the sake of keeping her position. Shame on her and all those who supported her in this. Silence is complacency. I can’t believe there are people like you still living in denial.
@Zeeshan Dogar Avoiding to call out and staying on silence are different and both depends on situations and lives. And I’m sure you’re just a newbie who’s echoing News lobbying and nothing more. So, kept blaming everything while you’ve done nothing useful nor helping them. I’m out.
30 burned????
May Victory granted to KNU
Use the best guerilla tactics against the terrorist military, defend ur ethnic tribal areas
END THE W.E.F
END THE U.N
END THE W.H.O
END THE I.M.F
God save my country
CIA…..plot.
first they go after them. then they go after you. Staying silent in the face of oppression is oppression in itself. watch yourself people.
Who are you threatening?
The Faults of Useless UN
THEIR IS ONLY ONE SOLUTION TO END THE VIOLENCE IN MYANMAR AND THATS TO COMPLETELY ILLIMINATE THAT DEMENTED SICK REGIME. I WOULD LOVE TO DO IN THE GENERALS MYSELF. THEY DESERVE NOTHING LESS THEN DEATH!!!!!!@
This human rights, these people and whole world was sleeping when Rohingya genocide was happening… Nevertheless can’t justify the innocent killings of common people.
Allah said that fight them till the whole religion is for allah, Quran is full of terrorism
Now can Myanmar people can feel pain like Muslim feel before
Islam eish bad
Good news very good job army from India🇮🇳
Where’s Rambo when u need him..feel bad for the ppl there
Biden is failed on Burma. If Donald Trump still in office he will handle it already.
KNU, Karen National Union need to rule the country
The worst thing is that, it will still happen as our world bodies are so powerless that anyone with power can kill who they want and say anything and all we hear is conderm with strong terms
What do you want the world bodies to do?
@Christiane Vanherck are they not the police to put sanction in place for such acts
@Afro The UN is NOT the world police nor is it a military force.
Please do some research and google it, many countries have imposed sanctions on the junta.
Army is Traines Destroy all enemies
Why don’t United States send troops to Myanmar. Myanmar military is no match with United States. There is plenty of resource and natural gas in Myanmar. It can also help to contain China. This world will be very popular. Average Myanmar people will welcome us troops. I don’t understand why United States want to take Afghanistan but not Myanmar.
A real misleading news, in reality, PDF terrorists had abducted the villagers against them and killed and burnt.
@rr rr OMG, are you in Myanmar? don’t be dumb. We are living in Myanmar and seeing is believing.
@rr rr The whole country is in chaos and thousands of people have already been brutally killed by the military. But this dude wanjay wan still couldn’t accept the reality
People like you need to accept the atrocities your military junta is committing and remove them instead of defending these murders of defenceless civilians.
@Zeeshan Dogar Only PDF under NUG killing civilians in my area. You just read news and talking, we see the truth and suffering.
Sanjay Wan why are u so heartless person I think you were born devil
my people been suffering for the longest, and for what.
Ma A Loe Min Aung Hlaing
Min Aung Hlaing Ma A Loe
Watch out guys…China & Pakistan will pour in military support for the government, just as they did in Sri Lankan in exchange for Geopolitical needs…
