How 'Myanmar Witness' proved a deadly air strike denied by state-owned medias

A number of photos and videos that circulated on social media and were picked up by pro-democracy media outlets show the aftermath of an air strike on the village of Ka Nan, in the west of Myanmar on January 7, 2024. While the state television outlet claimed that reports of the air strike were “fake news”, a visual investigation published by "Myanmar Witness" documented the attack and proved the Myanmar Air Force's involvement. Seventeen civilians are believed to have been killed.
