Myanmar's tragic toll: UN report reveals 2,414 killed in just 14 months

NAYPYIDAW, Myanmar - According to a United Nations report, Myanmar's military dictatorship has increased executions and arrests in an apparent attempt to suppress opponents, with tens of thousands jailed since the coup over three years ago.

In February 2021, the military took control, deposing Aung San Suu Kyi's elected civilian administration and sparking national mass protests, which it mercilessly suppressed.
