Myanmar Junta Airstrike Hits Buddhist Monastery, Killing 14

A Myanmar military fighter jet bombed a Buddhist monastery in Sagaing on August 21, 2026, killing 14 meditators and injuring 20. Over 100 were attending a Buddhist Lent retreat. Sagaing is a resistance stronghold; the junta hasn't commented. A UN mechanism says such airstrikes have escalated since December.
