Many killed in artillery strike in northern Myanmar – media, local sources

The Kachin media and local sources said the incident took place close to midnight on Monday, a few kilometres from a military camp run by the Kachin Independence Army (KIA), which is in conflict with Myanmar's ruling military. The reports were shared on social media by a local activist and a minister in Myanmar's shadow National Unity Government, who did not immediately respond to request for confirmation. A spokesperson for Myanmar's junta was not immediately reachable.
