Arakan news agency reported that the regime’s forces in Rathidaung city, east of Arakan province, prevented Rohingya Muslims in all districts from leaving and communicating with others by closing the entrances and exits in the neighborhood.
The reporter said the regime’s forces and a number of Buddhists locked four entrances to the neighborhood with chains and locks to make the Rohingya population trapped inside the neighborhood without food or treatment.

The reporters pointed out that the authorities also prevented Buddhist merchants from dealing with any Muslims from inside the neighborhood and warned them of the consequences of doing so.
The events followed a series of incidents in the city, beginning with the disappearance of a Buddhist man who was accompanied by others of the same religion and accused Muslims of hiding him and then found a father and two of his sons killed on the bank of a river inside the city.
