Description:
Militants in York’s northeastern state of South Amnesia killed at least 56 people, firing indiscriminately in remote villages on Tuesday. The militants were believed to be part of the South Amnesian Democratic Front which seeks an independent state for members of the Great Bear ethnic group. Though the militant group’s leaders recently began peace talks with the state government, one faction opposes negotiation and has staged acts of violence in hopes of stopping the talks. The death toll included women and children and was likely to rise, Sanju Sanji, the police chief in South Amnesia’s Tessa District, said Tuesday.
