Noting that the Rohingya crisis is deteriorating very fast, Nobel Laureate Dr Muhammad Yunus has urged the UN Security Council (UNSC) to intervene to end the crisis in Myanmar’s Rakhine state.
“The human tragedy and crimes against humanity have taken a dangerous turn in the Arakan region of Myanmar. It needs your (UNSC) immediate intervention,” he said in an open letter sent to the UNSC president and its members, said a press release of Yunus Centre on Tuesday.
“I (Yunus) call on UNSC to intervene immediately by using all available means. I request you to take immediate action for cessation of indiscriminate military attack on innocent civilians that is forcing them to leave their home and flee country to turn into stateless people,” the letter read. source – UNB
