At least 20 killed, dozens injured in Papua unrest: Indonesia military
JAKARTA, Sept 23, 2019 (BSS/AFP) – At least 20 people were killed and
dozens more injured as fresh unrest erupted in Indonesia’s restive Papua
region Monday, with some victims burned to death in buildings set ablaze by
protesters, authorities said.
“Most of them died in a fire,” said Papua military spokesman Eko Daryanto.
“The death toll could go up because many were trapped in burning kiosks.”
