The United Nations (U.N.) human rights office said Friday that Myanmar’s military was committing "grave human rights abuses” in the wake of its February coup, marking Human Rights Day on a sombre note.

“In the last week alone, security forces have killed and burned to death 11 people, among them five minors, and rammed vehicles into protesters exercising their fundamental right to peaceful assembly,” U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights spokesperson Rupert Colville said.

There has been no immediate reaction from Myanmar’s military to the accusations from the United Nations.
