Western firms facilitating production of Myanmar junta’s weapons, says report

Independent experts find western-supplied materials are still finding their way into military's hands

Companies in 13 countries across Europe, Asia and North America are assisting Myanmar's junta - either indirectly or directly - by supplying materials to the stated-owned entity that produces the military's weapons, a report by the Special Advisory Council for Myanmar (SAC-M) has found.

The weapons are then being used to commit human rights atrocities.
