Nine Killed In Burmese Crackdown by Mamajama(m): 7:50pm On Sep 27, 2007 |
Nine people have been killed during Thursday's crackdown on anti-government protesters in Burma's main city of Rangoon, state television says. The dead included eight protesters and a Japanese man, identified as a video journalist working for APF News - with 11 demonstrators and 31 soldiers hurt. The deaths came on the 10th day of protests, led by Buddhist monks. World leaders have renewed calls for sanctions - and the US says it is beginning with 14 top officials. WIll China intervene? http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/7016608.stm |
