Established in 2012 to document atrocities in Arakan and to raise awareness and research for better justice, and to protect & promote the rights of the Rohingya
The sooner the @UN, State parties to the U.N. Genocide Convention and international community create a safe zone and deploy peacekeepers to protect the #Rohingya as a people, the better, writes @Rafi_ZawWin

We're deeply saddened by the news of the magnificent Professor Dr. Wakar Uddin's death. We've lost a truly passionate #Rohingya leader. Our prayers and condolences are with Professor Dr. Wakar Uddin's family and friends. May Almighty Allah grant him highest place in Jannah!
This is an important step towards accountability. And social media data can be a critical tool in the prevention of future atrocities.
Facebook should release all such data, including that requested by The Gambia in its ICJ case against #Myanmar. https://t.co/V5E3YG1D0m
We call on @Malala to lend her voice to end restrictions on the education of Rohingya refugee girls & boys who are deprived of a better future because of an inhumane ban on levels of education in Bangladesh's refugee camp. #LetRohingyaLearn

Side Event at #UNGA on "Rohingya Crisis: Imperatives for a Sistainable Solution". Amb. Sautter underlined support of voluntary, safe return of Rohingya to Myanmar with UN help, as soon as conditions allow. Meanwhile we will keep supporting Bangladesh in humanitarian challenge.
The UK was honoured to co-host a Rohingya event at #UNGA with @BDMOFA. Bangladesh continues to play a vital humanitarian role in support for the Rohingya.
We will continue to work with the international community to push for accountability.
At the ID with SR on Myanmar, #Maldives called on the Myanmar military to end all atrocities committed against Rohingya people, meet obligations under #IHL, comply with ICJ provisional measures and to allow safe return of the Rohingyan refugees.
US judge orders Facebook to release records of posts that reportedly incited violence against the Rohingya in Myanmar.
Facebook has been accused of being slow to remove abusive posts that portrayed the Rohingya as sub-human

We finally have the long-awaited decision in #TheGambia’s lawsuit in US federal court against #Facebook seeking disclosure of material for use in its pending case against #Myanmar at the #ICJ (alleging genocide against the #Rohingya). Here's an overview. 1/30
US Sec @ABlinken should issue a #Rohingya-genocide determination now, writes @john_hq3 & @matthewfsmith in @thehill. It would expose the #Myanmar military's crimes, foster ethnic & religious unity in #Myanmar, & it "would be truthful, and that matters." https://t.co/SwpIs40DH0
Press Release 📣 #ASEAN’s role in #Myanmar further undermined by #Brunei biz w/ military junta & cronies. Dato Erywan Yusof cannot be a neutral mediator when he's also representing Brunei’s oil interests in 3 Myanmar blocks. We call for UN intervention! 👉🏽https://t.co/V3DQH2PkLL
We join @RefugeesIntl and other organizations, calling on @SecBlinken to declare #Myanmar’s crimes against the #Rohingya what they are: genocide. #CallitGenocide

⚠️80+ CSOs inside #Myanmar issued a release today with 10 recs urging @NUGMyanmar to
- abolish 1982 Citizenship Law
- abolish Tineyinthar 135 list
- use "Lumyo" instead of discriminatory "tineyinthar" term
- recognize Rohingya as Lumyo
#WhatshappeninginMyanmar#May30Coup
We are fully cooperating with the world's highest court, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) to ensure that justice will be delivered to our Rohingya brothers and sisters, and to our brothers and sisters from every ethnicity , JUSTICE WILL PREVAIL
The Feb. 1 military coup in #Myanmar has distracted int’l attention from their conditions in Bangladesh & diminished the prospect of safe & voluntary returns for #Rohingya refugees.
@EndGenocideDan shines a light on the situation in Bangladesh 👇

The Case for Making Myanmar’s Report Public
The #Rohingya are prevented from participating in the fight for their survival bc they're not permitted to see #Myanmar’s ICJ compliance reports. What could that mean for their future? #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar https://t.co/aX1stqoceX
SAC military is stationing at schools and hospitals which is against any military ethical standards and Geneva convention.
We urge the international community not to become desensitized about it and continue speaking out against such behavior.
