At least 33 killed after Myanmar military air strike hits market
Dozens of people have been killed in a military air strike on an opposition-controlled area of Rakhine State, Myanmar.
Myanmar's military carried out an airstrike on a crowded market in Kyauktaw town, Rakhine state, on September 28, resulting in 33 fatalities and 36 injuries, according to the Arakan Army, a rebel faction controlling the area. The death toll may rise further, as a witness reported over 30 bodies at the scene amid smoldering wreckage and damaged roads. The ongoing conflict in Myanmar's western Rakhine state has been characterized by dire conditions since the military's 2021 coup.
