Rohingya refugees
VS
Myanmar authorities
Rohingya refugees are a stateless Muslim minority from Myanmar's Rakhine State, who have faced decades of discrimination and repression under successive Myanmar authorities, including being effectively denied citizenship under the 1982 citizenship law.
Since August 2017, more than 912,000 ethnic Rohingya have fled Myanmar following a campaign of targeted violence, with nearly one million now living in Bangladesh.
The Rohingya genocide is described as a series of ongoing persecutions and killings by the Tatmadaw, Myanmar's armed forces.
The conflict between the Rohingya refugees and Myanmar authorities centers on the refugees' demand for a safe and dignified return to their homeland, while the Myanmar authorities have not provided conditions or guarantees that would make repatriation possible.
The refugees, now in Bangladesh, are protesting to demand a safe return to Rakhine State, but the situation in Myanmar remains unstable, and the authorities have not addressed the root causes of their displacement.
The disagreement is over the terms and feasibility of repatriation, with the refugees seeking assurances of safety and rights that have been denied to them for decades.
