More than 100,000 people in Kachin and Shan states have been forcibly displaced since the 2011 conflict between the government and armed rebels.
A group of UN experts in a report said that there is evidence of intentional genocide against the Rohingya by the Myanmar military.
At least 10,000 people were killed and around 725,000 sought refuge in Bangladesh due to military operations in Rakhine, which began on August 25, 2017 in response to insurgent attacks on government security posts, according to a UN report.According to the EU, around 600,000 Rohingya live in Rakhine and are “confined in their villages, or internally displaced in camps”, with limited access to food, sanitation, education and other services.
Myanmar authorities do not recognize the Rohingya as citizens and consider them to be Bangladeshi immigrants, denying them basic rights.
