Geneva: The UN Human Rights Office said on Friday it was worried that the military in Myanmar could prepare an attack that would soon be addressed to his opponent amid a buildup of weapons and heavy troops in the area where the internet had also closed down.
Ravina Shamdasani, a spokesman for the UN Human Rights, said that it had documented attacks intensifying by the army in the past month in the Chin and other regions, with murder and burning houses, in a real effort to seek armed resistance.
“What happens now for the past few days, we have seen a real reinforcement, a big spread of weapons and heavy troops in this area,” Shamdasani told the United Nations Briefing in Geneva, referring to cities in the chin, Sagaying and Magway.
Violence and buildup has caused the office u.n.
Head of Rights Michelle Bachelet became “very worried and worried that there might be an attack that will happen, a very serious attack on civilians”.
Two high-level commanders have been deployed to the area, he said.
A spokesman Junta did not immediately respond to a request for a comment.
Myanmar has been a chaos since the February 1 coup led by military head Min Aung Hlaing who ended a decade of tentative democracy.
Returns of military governments have encouraged anger at home and abroad.
Shamdasani urges influential countries to act to prevent more serious human rights violations.
He quoted estimates from local organizations that 1,120 people were killed in crackdown by security forces at pro-democracy strikes and protests since February.
Junta said that estimates were exaggerated and members of the security forces were also killed.
