Myanmar's security forces opened fire today in Yangon on a crowd attending the funeral of a student killed on Saturday during the repression of protests in that country.
For now, the number of victims and injured is unknown.
Local media reported that security forces opened fire on those gathered at the funeral and that several people were arrested.
The media added that there were victims in other cities.
At other funerals held today after the death of 114 people in repression on Saturday, citizens chanted slogans against the military junta.
UN human rights rapporteur on Myanmar Tom Andrews accused the military junta, which took power on February 1, of "mass killing" and criticized the international community for not doing enough to stop the violence.
"The military junta has made Armed Forces Day a day of shame by massacring men, women and small children across the country... Words of condemnation or concern ring hollow for the Myanmar people as the military junta carries out mass murders against them," he said.
United Nations (UN) Secretary General Antonio Guterres said he was shocked by the killings of civilians and added that "military repression is unacceptable" and that it requires a "firm, unified and decisive international response."
