Tatmadaw soldiers look set to conduct yet another raid in the restive village tract of Bura Sidha para in Maungdaw on Friday forcing civilians to flee the area. They have taken positions outside the village and look set to move in.
Many men have been killed, while women have been raped and sexually assaulted during previous raids. Even children as young as 10 have been arrested, and disappeared. Eye witnesses have reported dead bodies floating in the river but were unable to retrieve it in fear of security forces.
As a result of previous incidents, not only men, but women and even children have also fled the village tract.
Rakhine men in civilian clothing have been seen accompanying the army.
