Myanmar military continues attacks despite earthquake truce: UN

Myanmar's military has reportedly conducted dozens of attacks since the devastating earthquake hit the country, including at least 16 since a temporary truce was announced this week, the UN says.

Following reports of sporadic clashes even after last Friday's quake which has killed more than 3,000 people, the junta joined its opponents on Wednesday in calling a temporary halt to hostilities for relief to be delivered.

But the United Nations rights office has received reports of more than 60 attacks carried out by the military since the earthquake.
