Myanmar civil war: ‘I saw my son’s body on Facebook’

By BBC

Joseph is mourning the death of his son.

After the Myanmar military entered his village, he fled into the jungle but 13-year-old Pali Nang did not make it.

Joseph saw a photo of his son’s dead body on Facebook where it showed signs of torture.

He’s one of an estimated 40,000 Myanmar refugees who have fled to India.
