Another arson attack has taken place, this time in the Southern Maungdaw village of Shayera Para.
On Tuesday, at least seven houses in the village were set on fire by Rakhine vigilantes in full view of onlookers.
No casualties were reported.
Despite end of military operations, arson attacks by vigilantes backed by security forces have continued to spell fear among the already terrorised Rohingya population. Around ten thousand Rohingyas were killed in the military operations of 2017 with almost 700,000 taking refuge in Bangladesh.
