A resistance group and independent online media in Myanmar say airstrikes by the military on a trading junction in the central Magway region killed more than two dozen people and wounded 20 others. The strikes near Pyaung village west of Mindon township occurred twice on Sunday morning. A leader of the resistance group fighting the army said that two jet fighters bombed a trading point on a road where locals and truck drivers load and exchange goods. More than two dozen vehicles were burned or damaged by the explosions. Myanmar’s media outlets including Mizzima reported the death toll at between 20-25. The military has not mentioned any attack in the area.
