We have received a video from activist in which a group of women from the Rohingya Muslim minority in Myanmar sends distress message, requesting to be rescued from hunger after the army forces destroyed homes and displaced them from their neighborhoods in Arakan State from the village of Guguthara, Maungdaw.

Where the authorities are accused of committing crimes of rape and arrest.

One of the victims’ reports “The security forces destroyed our homes and we do not have a place to sleep or to eat.” She added: “Please Help us to stay alive, we are starving, we will be dead as the Buddhists and the government wants us that way, ” she said.

It should be noted that the horrific stories of gang rape, torture and murder took place at the hands of security forces in Myanmar since the launch of the military crackdown on the city Maungdaw northwestern of Arakan State, according to the testimonies and pictures those were leaked as well as satellites images by Human Rights Watch exposes the mass arsons of Rohingya homes, while the government denies these allegations and says that Security forces act in accordance with the law.
