    If you’re not aware, these are buddhists committing genocide on muslims. The 90% buddhist country doesn’t like muslims coming into their region, and their solution is genocide.

      The village that was struck with airstrikes is Chin or Kuki-Zo people as they are called in India. The most prominent religious edifices are churches in the village if you look on google map. This is near India border, not Bangladesh. The Burmese military junta has been using airstrikes everywhere since their illegal coup regardless of religion or ethnicity of the area.
