More than 100,000 Rohingya people
have fled their homes since 25 August. They are trying to escape
violence, following a military counter-offensive against Rohingya
militants who attacked police posts.
Who are ARSA?
The Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army (ARSA) operates in Rakhine state in northern Myanmar, where the mostly-Muslim Rohingya people have faced persecution. The Myanmar government has denied them citizenship and sees them as illegal immigrants from Bangladesh.
