Firing at American center
The head of the US House Foreign Affairs Committee, MP Gregory Meeks, said more than 100 people died on Saturday on Myanmar's National Armed Forces Day and firing at the US center in Yangon. This incident is being investigated. He said, 'The Burmese army took an absurd and barbaric stand on the country's National Armed Forces Day and took hundreds of lives.

Myanmar has provoked worldwide anger over Saturday's firing on pro-Democracy protesters and the killing of 114 people.
