The UK's Human Rights Ambassador, Eleanor Sanders, delivered a statement on Monday at the UN Human Rights Council's 63rd session in Geneva. She highlighted a worsening crisis in Myanmar, with airstrikes causing many civilian deaths and forced conscription driving over 3.6 million people from their homes. The UK has given £900,000 to a mechanism collecting evidence of serious crimes there.
