A BBC investigation finds evidence Myanmar's military killed 40 villagers in July, torturing some to death.
The Myanmar military carried out a series of mass killings of civilians in July that resulted in the deaths of at least 40 men, according to a BBC investigation.
The military has faced resistance from civilians since it seized control of the country in a February coup, deposing a democratically-elected government led by Aung San Suu Kyi. The witnesses in Yin - whose names we have withheld to protect their identities - told the BBC the men were tied up with ropes and beaten before they were killed.
A man who managed to escape the killings said that soldiers inflicted horrifying abuse on the men for hours before they died."Some soldiers looked young, maybe 17 or 18, but some were really old. There was also a woman with them."
