Airstrike kills at least 28


A junta airstrike has killed 28 people, including children, and wounded 25 at a temporary detention area in western Rakhine State, an ethnic minority armed group said.

The Arakan Army (AA) is engaged in a fierce fight with the military for control of Rakhine, where it has seized swaths of territory in the past year, all but cutting off the state capital Sittwe.
