Example 2

The Rohingya refugee crisis is the worst in decades

The weekly outflow from Myanmar is the highest since the Rwandan genocide

ON AUGUST 25th a group of militant Rohingya Muslims attacked police bases in northern Myanmar. The army retaliated with untrammelled fury, burning villages, killing civilians and raping women. More than 420,000 terrified Rohingyas have crossed the border into Bangladesh. The UN's International Organisation for Migration (IOM) has proclaimed the exodus "unprecedented in terms of volume and speed", and Zeid Ra'ad al-Hussein, the UN's human-rights chief, called it a "textbook example of ethnic cleansing".
