U.S. sanctions Myanmar generals over killing of Rohingya

The United States is hitting four top Myanmar generals, including the country’s commander in chief and his deputy, with sanctions over the mass killings of Rohingya Muslims.

 

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said in a statement Tuesday that the four are responsible for “gross human rights violations” involving extrajudicial killings in an ethnic cleansing campaign against the Rohingya in Myanmar’s northern Rakhine state.
