This report is Confirmed true
and is of
Medium Priority.
Here is why -
Burmese government security forces and Rakhine separatist, Arakan Army (AA), clashed
from 17th April to 22nd April in Rakhine state. Government forces also captured 105 bags of
rice that printed Turkish flag on every bag, which were donated from Turkey to Rohingya
refugees, in August 2012. Turkish government donated $50 million humanitarian aids to
Rohingya refugees and it is not clear how these aids were ended up with Rakhine
separatist hand, said Burmese authority. Possibly, aftermath of the violence, many times
Rakhine extremist threatened Rohingyas and took the supply by force.
