Villagers were shocked when they saw their properties and homes hit by bullets and some got accustomed to spending their days in shelters underground whenever they hear the sound of fighting nearing.

 

Some villagers who belong to the Christian faith have found serenity and peace in the church, escaping from their reality and the uncertainty in which they live.

The tatmadaw butchers have probably sent a message of congratulation to the murderer Putin for focusing world attention away from their continuing atrocities.

Yet, "world" attention was never focused in that direction anyway was it? Only the light fashionable variety.

Why is this?
