A settlement of about 3,000 Rohingya refugees on the Myanmar-Bangladesh border was burnt to the ground Wednesday after an hours-long gunfight between Rohingya militant groups that left at least one person dead, sources said.
The two armed groups engaged one another in a firefight with reports that Rohingya shelters were set ablaze in the no-man’s land along the frontier, causing hundreds to flee for safety into Bangladeshi territory in southeastern Bandarban district, refugees and officials said.
