Myanmar Soldiers Sentenced for Killing 3 Civilians in Kachin

Six soldiers were sentenced to 10 years in prison for killing three people in war-torn Kachin state. It was a rare prosecution in a country where the military has operated with impunity for decades.

It did not accomplish its goal.
That counts as a loss.
