Troops fire at funeral as Myanmar mourns bloodiest day since coup
13 Sept 13:49Key points summarised by AI
Myanmar security forces fired upon a funeral on Sunday, a day after 114 people were killed in the deadliest crackdown since the February 1 military coup.
The escalating violence has raised the civilian death toll to over 459, with reports of children among the victims and thousands fleeing military air strikes in border regions.
International condemnation intensified, with Western nations and the UN Special Rapporteur urging the junta's isolation, sanctions, and a halt to its access to weapons and funding.
Despite the junta leader's claims of protecting the people, the military continues its brutal suppression of protests and engages in clashes with ethnic armed groups across the country.
