Attacks (Oct 2012 - Dec 2014)


Unlike we know artificially, what happening in Arakan is not the 'clashes' of but the state sponsor ethnic cleansing pogrom through genocidal attacks but the government and local media still providing reverse information and hiding the actual numbers of causalities and facts by fancily reporting as 'a few dead and around thousand houses burnt'.

The quasi-civilian government and Rakhine people have well known about the weakness of UN and its global leaders in Burma history and their deliberative dealings. As well as, the silent on the ongoing emergency crises of Rohingya allows escalation of additional crimes.

From 20 Oct, most of those Rakhine people who violently involved in the attacks were came by boats from Taungup and Tandwe towns and they organized the rest in the respective towns where the attacks took place.
The government authority did not stop them from marching to attack the muslim villages and cutting off of the tele-communication in all over Arakan state on the time of the attacks began. Surprisingly again, the attacks were took place in the mid of the 'Martial Law' is imposed and security armed forces are heavily guarding these areas.

In total, about (6,000) houses plus at least (35) mosques were burnt down and about (1,000) people including about 20 Rakhines were also died in six different towns- Minbya, Mrauk U, Kyaukpyu, Myebon, Pauktaw and Rambre towns of Southern Arakan state. The dead bodies of 178 those found in Mrauk U town were buried in the graveyard of Yainetay (Zula Fara) village..

The terrorist Rakhines have vigilantly attacking in all over Arakan state beside due to communication difficulties.
Half of Arakanese Rohingya, Kaman and Rakhine muslims about 15,000 people escaped by boats from Southern Arakan towns are still missing and where about they are still unknown.
The rest who made to Sittwe and Maungdaw beaches have been surrounded on the shore from 24 Oct and even some Rohingya villagers from Sittwe managed to deliver foods and clothes have been threatened by Nasaka forces through several warning shots.. Those reached near Kyaukpando of Maungdaw Town South are not allowed to land despite the NGO staffs rushed to the scene.

This kind of additional harsh order intend to death from starvation is instructed by the Rakhine state chief minister, a Rakhine U Hla Maung Tin.
