The UK has circulated a wide-ranging United Nations resolution on Myanmar urging renewed peace efforts, condemning attacks on civilians – especially by the military – and calling for a halt to illicit arms transfers.

The draft resolution obtained on Tuesday by The Associated Press expresses “alarm at the increased violence across Myanmar”, which is engulfed in civil war between the military-led regime and resistance forces.
