Human's Rohingya Muslims Need You
MC Charity is raising money for Human Appeal
Story
Rohingya Muslims are facing a terrible crisis.
International media and human rights organisations have dubbed the Rohingya people are one of the most persecuted ethnic groups in the world. They have no legal protection and are denied citizenship in Myanmar, leaving them vulnerable to discrimination, exploitation and violence. Most Rohingya Muslims live in the impoverished area of western Rakhine State, and are subject to harsh restrictions on their ability to work and travel.
Many Rohingya people are dependent on humanitarian aid for survival but since the escalation of fighting in October, aid deliveries have been suspended. The latest outbreak of extreme violence has forced more than 30,000 Rohingya Muslims to abandon their homes. The situation is dire, and a BBC correspondent on the Bangladesh-Myanmar border has spoken with fleeing families who have described the events in northern Rakhine as “hell on earth”.
The organisation Human Rights Watch has identified more than 120,000 homes in Rohingya villages that have been razed to the ground. Hundreds of families are currently sheltering in camps in bordering towns like Teknaf and Ukhia.
Please stand with the Rohingya Muslims in their hour of need. You have the power to save a life.
