BANGKOK: A prominent ethnic rebel group in Myanmar suspended one of its key leaders this week, a spokesman said on Saturday (Jul 9), as it investigates an alleged massacre of civilians on its territory.
Myanmar has been in turmoil since a February coup ousted Aung San Suu Kyi s elected government, sparking huge protests among civilians and renewing clashes between the military and ethnic rebel armies in its border regions.
