UN launches aid appeal for Rohingya refugees

AMN

United Nations has urged Myanmar’s leader Aung San Suu Kyi to immediately halt military operation against Rohingya Muslims. In an interview with the BBC, the UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres said if Aung San Suu Kyi does not reverse the situation now, then the tragedy will be absolutely horrible.

He warned the offensive could amount to ethnic cleansing. The UN chief reiterated that the Rohingya Muslims should be allowed to return home.
