Myanmar Rohingya policy

The Arakan Army says that it has captured the last remaining junta base in Maungdaw Township, after six months of fighting.

The arrest warrant against junta chief Min Aung Hlaing only addresses a tiny portion of the crimes committed by the Myanmar armed forces.

Min Aung Hlaing has been accused of crimes against humanity for the deportation and persecution of Rohingya civilians in 2017.

Malaysian leaders have been vocal about the plight of the Rohingya and other Muslim communities. Now is their chance to make a difference.

Rohingya activists and local media reports say that civilians have been targeted by the Arakan Army in Maungdaw, a town close to the border with Bangladesh.

Tens of thousands of Rohingya Muslims remain trapped in northern Rakhine State, as fighting continues between the military and the Arakan Army.

The Arakan Army has called for the mostly Rohingya residents of Maungdaw to leave, a month after it was accused of mass arson attacks in a neighboring township.

Reports of arson attacks and the mass displacement of Rohingya civilians in western Myanmar are being used as rhetorical weapons in the country's civil war.

During his long career, Tin Oo played important roles on both sides of the struggle between the military and the pro-democracy movement.

The U.N.'s human rights office says that tens of thousands have been forcibly displaced in what one expert described as a "hate-driven unnatural disaster."

The Arakan Army claims that it has overrun the 15th Military Operations Command headquarters in northern Rakhine State.

After years of conflict and ethnic cleansing, recent military gains by the Arakan Army have opened up fresh possibilities for the region's future.
