Authorities in Myanmar destroyed more than $446 million worth of seized illegal drugs to mark an annual international anti-drug trafficking day on Monday, police said.
The drug burn came as U.N. experts warned of increases in the production of opium, heroin and methamphetamine in Myanmar, with exports threatening to expand markets in South and Southeast Asia. Myanmar is a major producer and exporter of methamphetamine and the world’s second-largest opium and heroin producer after Afghanistan.
Experts have warned that violent political unrest in Myanmar after the military takeover two years ago — which is now akin to a civil war between the military government and its pro-democracy opponents — has caused an increase in drug production. #shorts
