Nearly 800 migrants were brought ashore in Indonesia on Friday, but other vessels crammed with them were sent back to sea despite a United Nations call to rescue thousands adrift in Southeast Asian waters with dwindling food and water.

The Myanmar forces and Buddhist gangs carried out an arbitrary campaign against the Rohingyas in Kyambong district (Kyun Pauk Pyu Zuu), north of Maungdaw city, during which they raided houses, attacked women and children, drove Rohingya men and youth to run in to the jungle (woods)  due to the fear of horrible tortures, killing and serious injuries by  the members of the extremist group and authorities.

This Incident happened right after the Eid al-Fitr prayer at around 8:00 am local time,

According to the agency’s correspondent, there is evidence of a prior agreement between the Myanmar troops on the one hand and members of the Buddhist gangs on the other before the implementation of this arbitrary campaign.

The exact number of victims was not reported to the Agency, but various sources confirmed at least 6 Rohingyas has been slaughtered.

Myanmar authorities are once again trying to create an unrest in Arakan following their genocidal campaign against Rohingya last year October.
