Myanmar army besieged dozens of Rohingya families who fled their homes to escape excessive violence against them in the city of Buthidaung.
Rohingya families were stuck due to a river and can’t move, the correspondent said on the video, after fleeing their homes to escape abuses by the Myanmar police and armed Buddhist gangs, which included burning houses, raping girls and confiscating what remained of their supplies.
He added that the situation of displaced people trapped is very worst due to high temperature and increased humidity of the region due to tropical climate, in addition to lack of drinking water and the lack of adequate sources of food for children and older.
The Rohingya activist Ayoub al-Saidi commented : “People can no longer tolerate more as the Myanmar army persist the practice of harassment and provocations and to inflict psychological harm on the Muslims of the Rohingya even as they fled the country, and called on the international community to end the crisis inside and outside, Especially since the violations continue on a daily basis so far since the outbreak of the current crisis on 25th August.
