Alwaght- Rohingyas are still fleeing persecution in Myanmar and moving to neighboring Bangladesh every week, fresh report have revealed.
The escaping refugees are giving fresh evidence of ethnic cleansing perpetrated against the oppressed Muslim minority in Myanmar's Rakhine state.
The persecution of Muslims is still unfolding, six months after a military crackdown sparked the massive refugee crisis which continues to draw condemnation worldwide.
The military crackdown in the north of Rakhine has been termed "ethnic cleansing" by the United Nations.
While Bangladesh and Myanmar talk of repatriating the refugees, the influx continues. Some days 200 people cross the border, on others a few are able to make the perilous journey. More than 2,500 have entered the overflowing camps in Bangladesh so far in February.
Hundreds of Rohingya villages have been torched in the crackdown, according to refugees and monitoring groups. Human Rights Watch said on Friday that another 55 villages have been razed since November.
The Rohingya have been systematically stripped of their legal rights in mainly Buddhist Myanmar in recent decades and face rampant discrimination.
Myanmar denies seeking to eradicate the minority but refuses to give UN investigators access to an area where thousands of Rohingya are believed to have been killed.
Doctors Without Borders, also known by its French acronym MSF says that at least 6,700 members of the persecuted Rohingya Muslim minority group were killed in ongoing state-sponsored ethnic in a period of one month beginning on August 25.
Early February Zeid Ra'ad al-Hussein United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights said that acts of genocide and ethnic cleansing may have occurred in the campaign of violence against Rohingya that sparked an exodus of nearly 1 million people to neighboring Bangladesh.
