Burmese authorities and Arakanese groups have committed crimes against humanity and imposed an ethnic cleansing campaign against Rohingya Muslims since June 2012. There are about 800,000 Rohingya left in Burma, and they mainly live in Arakan State, western Burma. Hundreds have been killed in domestic attacks, though the exact number is unknown because the government blocks international access to the Rohingya. Since the attacks began, thousands have fled Burma by boat, and at least hundreds have drowned. President Thein Sein, who has said the “only solution” to anti-Muslim violence is to deport all Rohingya or put them in camps, is ostensibly seeking to push all Rohingya out of the country by subjecting them to a fabricated and completely avoidable humanitarian crisis. Rohingya IDPs now languish under an imposed system of apartheid, and humanitarian aid workers assisting the Rohingya are intimidated and threatened.
