The Arakan Army (AA), which controls much of northern Rakhine State, has reportedly ordered the evacuation of Rohingya civilians from the village of Sein Hnyin Pyar to Wet Ma Kyar in Buthidaung township. The order, issued on August 15, 2024, has left many Rohingya families uncertain about their next steps, as they remain under AA control in a region beset by conflict.
Despite the order, residents of Sein Hnyin Pyar have not yet complied, leading to heightened tensions in the area. The situation underscores the precarious position of the Rohingya, who are caught between the AA’s military operations and the Myanmar junta’s oppressive policies. Reports suggest that while the AA has provided some humanitarian assistance, the forced relocations have further destabilized the already fragile conditions for Rohingyas in Buthidaung.
The ongoing conflict in Rakhine State has seen thousands of Rohingyas displaced since early 2024, with many fleeing to areas under AA control as fighting intensifies. The international community continues to express concern over the humanitarian crisis unfolding in the region, calling for an immediate cessation of hostilities and protection for all civilians.
