The NUG Ministry of Justice announces that the terrorist junta and all its subordinates intentionally committed war crimes
The Ministry of Justice of the National Unity Government issued a statement dated October 24 regarding the war crimes committed by the terrorist junta in A Nang Pa in the Kachin Independence Army (KIA) 9th Brigade Area.
The statement states, on October 23, 2022, at around 8:30 p.m., the terrorist military fighter jets bombed and attacked civilians at the music concert held in A Nang Pa, Kachin Independence Army (KIA) 9th Brigade area in Kachin State, to celebrate the anniversary of the 62nd Kachin Independent Organization (KIO) Day, reportedly killing some Kachin artists and many civilians.
In addition, it is stated that the ministry is deeply saddened to learn that at least 100 injured civilians are in a life-threatening situation as the terrorist military is blocking the road near Ginsi Village, preventing them from receiving medical treatment.
The action of the terrorist military is said to be a flagrant violation of the provision of Common Article 3, Protocol II of the Geneva Convention, which states that “Persons taking no active part in the hostilities shall be protected from attack,” and it is clear that the terrorist military has committed a war crime.
The Ministry of Justice of the National Unity Government has strongly condemned the act of committing this war crime and said that the terrorist military council and all its subordinates who blatantly committed the above terrorist act committed an unforgivable war crime on purpose and must be punished accordingly.

The international community regards the affairs of Myanmar as its internal affairs. But they consider the affairs of Ukraine to be international affairs.” — Deputy Minister Khun Baham Htan said.
In addition, the Deputy Minister said that, in the media sector, the expression of the issues of Myanmar is weak, and the NUG government is working amid difficulties to penetrate the issues of Myanmar to the international community.

It reportedly resulted in the deaths of many people, including artists, women, and children and injured many more. It clearly constitutes a crime against humanity and a war crime.” —Ambassador U Kyaw Moe Tun addressed.
