China's latest move to advance repatriation still falls short of addressing the Rohingya citizenship issue which is central to the crisis.
Six Myanmar border guard police have been wounded in an attack by Rohingya Muslim insurgents in Rakhine state, government media reports, amid fears of escalating violence in the region.
The UN Security Council asked the Myanmar military to let it investigate rights abuses in Rakhine, but was told the “internal matter had already been investigated enough” and those responsible had been punished.
Rohingya Muslim insurgents say that ten Rohingya found in a mass grave in Myanmar's troubled Rakhine state last month were "innocent civilians", and not members of their group.
