UNITED NATIONS: The U.N. General Assembly adopted a resolution expressing ``grave concern'' over persistent human rights violations in Myanmar, particularly violence against minorities.
The resolution, which came in response to a U.N. special investigator's report, called on Myanmar to end the atrocities it has perpetrated in its yearlong efforts to suppress an insurgency in the country's Karen province.
In the resolution adopted Friday night, the assembly asked the military government to ``end the systematic violations of human rights and fundamental freedoms in Myanmar.''
It also called on the government ``to take urgent measures to put an end to the military operations targeting civilians in the ethnicareas, and the associated violations,'' including the recruitment of child soldiers and the use of torture.
