Very nice name they gave.  Civil War.  But in Gaza,  they called it the Israel-Hamas war or the Israel-Palestine war or simply the Gaza war.  How come the UN cannot treat the Rohingya people like they treat the Palestinian people?

Fighting Intensifies on Myanmar’s Border With Bangladesh By The Irrawaddy.

Fighting has intensified along Rakhine State’s border with Bangladesh in southern Maungdaw Township as the Arakan Army (AA) attacks border guard police positions to seize the entire township in the state’s northwest, residents of the township say.


They said the ethnic army is targeting border guard police positions in the township’s south after seizing northern Maungdaw.

“The AA controls all of northern Maungdaw. Fighting is taking place in southern Maungdaw now. Three [junta] positions have fallen over the past few days,” a resident of the township said on Wednesday, adding that two junta bases – Mawyawaddy and Myin Lut – “are on the brink of falling.”

The base of Border Guard Police Battalion No. 5 on the outskirts of Maungdaw town in Myo Thu Gyi ward is the only key junta base that the ethnic army has yet to attack, the source said, adding that junta troops are still deployed in Maungdaw town.

The AA seized two small bases near the border guard police battalion headquarters near Kyauk Panu village earlier this week, and is attacking other battalion headquarters in Inn Din, Myin Lut and Mawyawaddy villages, residents said.

The headquarters of Border Guard Police Battalion No. 9 near Myint Lut village on the Maungdaw-Agnumaw Road occupies land that had been home to Muslim villages before they were razed during communal violence in 2017.

The headquarters of Border Guard Police Battalion No. 6 is located in Inn Din village where Myanmar military soldiers massacred 10 Rohingya people in 2017.
