Myanmar’s military has used an “enhanced blast” munition known as a fuel-air explosive in an air attack that killed more than 160 people, including many children, at a ceremony organised by its opponents last month, according to Human Rights Watch.
The weapon, also known as a thermobaric or vacuum bomb, killed more than 160 people when it was dropped on the gathering in central Sagaing region, Human Rights Watch (HRW) said in a report on Tuesday.
