On the evening of 3 April, two military helicopters flew over Hpon Nyo Leik village in south Buthidaung township in Myanmar, firing on Rohingya Muslims who were tending their cows and paddy fields. According to the sources, at least seven civilians have been killed and more than 18 injured. The UN Human Rights Office has condemned the Myanmar military- called the Tatmadew- for again carrying out attacks against civilians and have been blamed for their “genocidal intent.”
