The central Myanmar town declared a curfew for a second night on Thursday after clashes killed 10 people, including a Buddhist monk, and injured at least 20, authorities said. Riots erupted in Meikhtila, 540 km (336 miles) north of Yangon, on Wednesday after an argument between a Buddhist couple and the Muslim owners of a gold shop escalated into a riot involving hundreds of people, police said.

鉴于缅甸密铁拉市发生冲突,该国总统吴登盛宣布该地区进入紧急状态。吴登盛表示,为了保护国民,已经向当地派遣军队。这一位于缅甸中心地带的城市中,已经连续第三天爆发佛教和穆斯林教徒之间的流血冲突。据各大通讯社报道,数个沿街掠夺的组织活跃于当地,导致居民出于害怕躲在家中。到目前为止,死者数目的统计不一,浮动在5至25人之间。相关报道称,当地数条街道遭到严重破坏。在缅甸国民中占多数的佛教徒和少数派穆斯林教徒之间经常陷入紧张关系。仅去年一年,就有大约200人在两教派之间的暴力冲突中丧生。
