authorities should immediately stop all pushbacks of boats carrying
ethnic Rohingya refugees, and investigate and end all assaults on
refugees, Human Rights Watch said today. The authorities should allow
them to disembark in the nearest safe port, provide protection and
humanitarian assistance, and investigate online incitement of violence
against them.
