Reports say that many Muslims are leaving their villages in Rakhine State and heading to Bangladesh after the attacks by ARSA terrorists in the region.

Foreign media agencies in Yangon have travelled to Rakhine State to gather information on the reason for Muslims leaving for Bangladesh. Media representatives travelled to Alelthan Kyaw Village and met the 2,000 Muslims temporarily taking shelter along the coast and the media also met with the 70 Muslims currently living along the coast between Mhowin Creek and Gawdutharra Creek.

Afterwards, the Office of the Commander-in-Chief reports that the media representatives asked questions on regional security measures to Brig-Gen Aye Lwin, the Deputy Administrator of the Office for Public Relations and Psychological Warfare Operations under the Office of the Commander-in-Chief (Army), and Deputy Police Commander Myint Kyaw, who is currently on duty as part of the security force in Rakhine.
