A devastating airstrike by Myanmar’s military on a Buddhist monastery in Sagaing killed fourteen people participating in a meditation retreat, with twenty others wounded—marking yet another brutal escalation in the country’s ongoing conflict. The attack, involving two bombs dropped from a fighter jet, underscores a troubling pattern of aerial assaults that have increasingly targeted civilians amid fierce resistance to military rule. As tensions mount since the 2021 coup and the UN has documented rising airstrikes, Myanmar’s government insists its strikes are narrowly targeted and necessary in response to armed insurgents—with no acknowledgment of the human toll.
