All the villagers from these aforementioned villages sought refuge in the public hospital in Buthidaung Township, situated at Ward No 02 in Buthidaung downtown.β
βMore than four mortar shells were fired from the direction of Kyawk Raik new village by AA, and all of them fell into the hospital compound, resulting in three Rohingyas fatalities and 10 casualties. The old department of the hospital collapsed.β
AA deliberately attacked the public hospital so that the Rohingya people seeking refuge in the hospital could be targeted by their mortar shells.
