Htet Myat Thu and Win Htut Oo were executed during a raid carried out by 20 junta soldiers on Thuโ€™s house in Myanmar’s southern state of Mon.

The two journalists’ bodies were cremated by the military on the spot. This shooting brings the total number of killed media professionals to seven since the coup d’รฉtat in February 2021.

We again renew our call on the international community to step up pressure on the regime to cease its campaign of terror against reporters.
