New Reports of Forced Conscription in Rakhine State
The Arakan Army (AA) is reportedly compiling lists of Rohingya men, women, and even minors for forced recruitment in Buthidaung & Maungdaw.
Families are fleeing to Bangladesh as threats of "consequences" rise.
Yangon University just awarded an Honorary Doctorate in Public Administration to Min Aung Hlaing. Giving an "honorary" degree to a future ICC-wanted criminal is beyond disgusting. A dark day for Myanmarβs academia.

Last night, Dec 10, the Myanmar junta carried out an airstrike on a public hospital in Mrauk-U, a town currently controlled by the Arakan Army (AA).
33 people were killed. 76 were injured. Of the injured, 27 are in critical condition.
Among those killed, 3 Rohingya included.
As of now, the AA is following the same pattern, settling its own people and building villages on Rohingya land.
Since the beginning of last year, the injustices, abuses and crimes committed by the AA against the Rohingya have been countless. 3/3
