Rohingya Crisis News is primarily a list of (and links to) major media articles about the Rohingya Crisis -- from leading English-language media outlets, official government agencies and international organizations.

They had recently uncovered the first clear photographic proof of Myanmar military's atrocities against Rohingyas -- a mass killing in Inn Din. Shortly after this photo was taken, they were, according to a police captain's later testimony, "set up" by the government, and arrested for receiving "government secrets." They face several years in prison. The police captain who testified in their defense has been jailed, as well. A. Slodkowski © 2017 Reuters

A note about  INTERNATIONAL DATES: Events happening in Myanmar may be reported in Western media on "the day before," because they happen on the other side of the International Date Line   (The morning of Sept.19 in Burma/Myanmar is the evening of Sept.18 in New York ).

  NOTE that, in the interest of credibility, most cited sources are in nations with a free press. RCN generally (though not totally) refrains from citing media in nations where the press is censored, restricted, or government-controlled.

  Some articles, however, are occasionally cited from sources in authoritarian countries (or countries where press freedom is endangered) -- including, notably, in Myanmar, China, Turkey and Saudi Arabia -- because of the significance of that country to the Crisis, or as a significant political, military, economic or media power, with the means to influence circumstances in Myanmar and/or Bangladesh, directly or indirectly.

  However, articles from such sources are usually limited, and the source annotated with the appropriate cautionary note. Readers are advised to view such content with caution and/or skepticism.
