The accounts have not been independently verified, but the pictures showed the charred remains of at least 30 people inside burned-out trucks.


A villager who went to the scene told the Associated Press news agency that the victims had been fleeing fighting between Myanmar's military and local militia groups when they were arrested and killed by soldiers.

Independent local media reported on Friday that 10 villagers from Mo So, including children, had been arrested by government soldiers.


The witness who spoke to the Associated Press said he believed some of the people killed in the massacre were those arrested by Tatmadaw troops the day before, although he did not see the killings himself.
