Currently the fighting between Myanmar army and Arakan Army intensifies in Southern Buthidaung especially around Rohingya villages, where Rohingya are commonly targeted by both.
A villager told RVision, βAfter the ICJ case against Burma, the military intensified its attack on Rohingya as well, but the launchers fired from the military base never hit homes of Rakhine or Hindus amazingly.β
He continued that the βMuslim villages of Northern Buthidaung were totally cleansed during 2017 Military Operation. The few villages left to the south of Urban Buthidaung are being targeted one by one now.β adding βthese are planned attacks from the military.β
According to the man, a monk from the temple warned the Muslims that the situation is going to be worse.
No fatalities are reported yet, but hundreds of Rohingya are displaced. Muslims are worried of their future in the region as military firing continues.
