In February last year, Myanmar’s military overthrew a democratic government and seized power. Following that, they started protesting against the Myanmar military regime.

The army suppressed the protest with an iron hand. More than 1,500 people were killed in the firing by the soldiers. Armed rebel groups are still active there against the army. The army has been conducting attacks against them from time to time.

In this situation, the UN children’s organization UNICEF has reported that the military has carried out an airstrike on a school in Myanmar.

In a statement released by the organization, “Last Friday, the army conducted an aerial attack on a school in Sagaing region in the northwestern part of Myanmar. Soldiers flew in helicopters and surrounded the school and opened fire. 11 children were killed and 15 children have gone missing from the school.” reported. But Myanmar has denied this and explained that the rebels were hiding in the school and attacked them.
