🚨Two women, two cases of rape. In #Rakhine State, the Arakan Army is targeting #Rohingya women with sexual violence just like the Burmese military did in 2017 & for decades.

The world must listen to survivors' voices, bring justice & end root causes of #SGBV. #16Days #Myanmar

"Whenever I feel pain on my hand, I remember the genocide that we faced in 2017. I hope that I will get justice before I go back to my home.”

📢 #Genocide & gender-based violence are intertwined. The world must take #GBV as seriously as any other crime, and bring justice. #16Days #Myanmar #Rohingya

"Everyday when I sleep, I hear the screaming of my children who were killed in front of my eyes."

➡️ In #Rakhine State, an ongoing genocide is unfolding where #GBV is, once again, being wielded as a tool to erase #Rohingya women. We condemn all #SGBV, & call for urgent action.

🚨Romana, a mother of two children, was raped by the Arakan Army while fleeing to Bangladesh with 10 families from her village in Buthidaung Township in May 2024.

Alarming news about the termination of Temporary Protected Status for Burmese nationals in the United States, and words supporting the junta's sham elections & normalizing the crisis.

The USG must clarify its position on #Burma & reemphasize its continued support for the country's people.
