YANGON (AFP): Myanmar's junta on Sunday (Oct 24) labelled the United Nation's latest rights report on the conflict-wracked nation an "incitement to violence" and accused the body of interfering in its internal affairs.

The nation has been in chaos since a February coup, with more than 1,100 killed in a crackdown on dissent, according to a local monitoring group.
