  The accusations that Bengali Muslims (referred to as "Rohingya") shout out to the world are actually projections—this is a very common tactic among Islamic terrorist groups worldwide. Muslims often perceive themselves as perpetual victims. This represents a transference of charges such as war crimes and intended genocide from the actual perpetrators to the victims.   There are many instances where Islamic terrorists attempt to manipulate global perception by creating fake news stories, often using unrelated photos and videos and falsely claiming them to be real. They construct a narrative that other religions inherently dislike Muslims, ultimately shifting the blame onto Bengali Muslims. In contrast, Muslim communities such as the Kaman, Panthay, Myedu, and others live peacefully in Myanmar. They have not rebelled or demanded autonomy. However, the Bengali Muslims are different. The Bengali Muslims have created the mess that they are in, and they must change dramatica...

  On the evening of June 8, dozens of young Muslim refugee men wearing shirts bearing the emblem of the ARSA (Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army) militant group were spotted on Cox’s Bazar beach in Bangladesh. According to reports, they may have come from the Kutupalong refugee camps or may be living in rented apartments in the town of Cox’s Bazar, outside the camps. In a video report by Cox’s Bazar News , a teenage boy was seen kissing the ARSA emblem on his shirt with apparent affection, and he verbally confirmed his support, saying “ARSA.” According to local sources, Bangladeshi authorities reportedly prohibit refugees from leaving the camps except for medical emergencies. The camps are already equipped with schools, clinics, hospitals, and markets. A local resident commented, “If they keep coming out like this, there will be a rise in crime in the country.” https://x.com/ArakanBaynews/status/1932835719715955128

Muslim communities in Rakhine (Arakan) areas under the control of the Arakan Army are celebrating Eid al-Adha, also known as Kurbani Eid. To support the festivities, the Arakan People's Revolutionary Government has reportedly distributed cattle and rice. Additionally, the Central Administration Department has granted tax exemptions on cattle slaughter during the holiday, according to local Muslim community members. https://x.com/ArakanBaynews/status/1931582720276390054

On June 7, the Arakan People's Revolutionary Government (APRG), under the ULA/AA, organized a public Eid al-Adha event in Maungdaw and donated meat curry to the local Muslim community for the celebration. Around 300 people—including ULA/AA leaders, Muslim religious figures, and local residents—attended the ceremony. This marks a shift from past years when celebrations were limited to private homes. The APRG also donated 10 cows to support underprivileged Muslims. A religious leader praised the gesture as a step toward mutual respect, religious freedom, and peaceful coexistence among ethnic groups. Under previous military rule, such events were restricted, and local residents faced limitations on movement. Now, Muslims in Maungdaw report enjoying greater religious freedom and security, with the AA conducting regular patrols and addressing criminal activity. https://x.com/ArakanBaynews/status/1931031918960869882

On June 3, a violent clash erupted between Bangladesh Border Guard (BGB) forces and an armed Muslim group near Salamipara village in Naikhongchhari, Bandarban. The confrontation began when BGB troops intercepted cattle smuggled across the border, prompting the armed Muslim group to attack with firearms and machetes. Three BGB personnel were reportedly injured, and some cattle were recaptured by the attackers. The BGB later apprehended several individuals involved.

Approximately 4,000 learning centers in Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh, serve 250,000 children in Muslim refugee camps, as reported by Save the Children and UNICEF. There is a need for due diligence and accountability to ensure these programs do not mask problematic Madras schools that could foster extremism. Due to incidents of teachers violently beating and disciplining children in Islamic religious schools (madrasas), these schools do not install CCTV cameras, as can be understood through the video. https://x.com/ArakanBaynews/status/1930498828467384337 https://x.com/KreatelyMedia/status/1929508448611238272

Nobel laureate and interim Bangladeshi leader Muhammad Yunus is reportedly preparing to flee the country amid explosive allegations of his involvement in a plot to assassinate Army Chief General Waker-Uz-Zaman. The claims, first made in a May 21 podcast by journalist Nabonita Chowdhury, have intensified tensions between Yunus and the military. The Army, already critical of Yunus' refusal to set election dates or limit his government's powers, has withdrawn its support. Additional pressure comes from Yunus’ crackdown on journalists and political dissent. As military intervention looms, rumors circulate of Yunus escaping via private jet to a Western country where he holds citizenship. https://x.com/ArakanBaynews/status/1925840222752829629 https://www.businessworld.in/article/muhammad-yunus-allegedly-plans-to-flee-bangladesh-amid-assassination-plot-against-army-chief-557618

I n 1954, Cassim, leader of the Mujahid rebels in Arakan, declared plans to establish an "Islamic Empire" in western Burma, reflecting early jihadist ambitions in the region. His forces had long terrorized local communities, and he released a Buddhist monk to send a message to Prime Minister U Nu’s government. Today, groups like ARSA and RSO echo similar goals, renewing long-standing Islamist campaigns in Arakan. https://x.com/ArakanBaynews/status/1922551665686901135

  During Myanmar’s brief democratic opening, prominent Muslim lawyer U Ko Ni emphasized the political significance of the Muslim population, stating they made up at least 10% of the country.

In 2025, both the Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army (ARSA) and Bangladesh's Jamaat-e-Islami party have openly promoted the creation of an Islamic State in Arakan, Myanmar. Reports indicate Jamaat proposed this plan to China, while ARSA militants issued violent threats against Buddhists and other minorities. This movement is part of a long-standing jihadist agenda to colonize Arakan, now increasingly visible in Bangladesh. Extremist rhetoric and systematic attacks by ARSA reflect an alarming strategy to ethnically cleanse and claim the region. https://x.com/ArakanBaynews/status/1920351116417761621  

  In 2025, 16 Indigenous women were assaulted in the Chittagong Hill Tracts, highlighting a disturbing pattern of settler violence against Indigenous Buddhist and Hindu communities. Despite repeated incidents, perpetrators continue to act with impunity.

On April 21, 2025, the Arakan People’s Revolutionary Government (APRG) temporarily seized a shipment of medicines brought into Maungdaw Township, Rakhine, by a Bangladeshi national, reportedly on behalf of Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF). The APRG’s Customs Department stated the medicine was held due to a lack of prior approval, although the amount was not large. APRG policy permits humanitarian imports if organizations coordinate with its Humanitarian and Development Cooperation Office (HDCO). Criticism was also directed at MSF and other INGOs/NGOs for historically favoring Muslim communities in Rakhine, especially under Myanmar’s military regimes. Allegations also link INGOs’ aid supplies, including those bearing MSF logos, to armed groups operating in the region. The APRG emphasized the need for equal aid distribution moving forward. Meanwhile, concerns grow about militant groups in Rohingya camps in Bangladesh allegedly pressuring refugees to join armed factions by threatening t...

On May 5, 2025, in Maungdaw Township, Rakhine State, three local Muslims—Ma Mat Ayup (42), Iliyas (26), and Gofur Alam (47)—were abducted by around 15 armed members of the Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army (ARSA) terrorist group, who accused them of sharing information with the Arakan Army (AA). The next day, AA troops, aided by villagers from nearby Kwun Thee Pin and Leap Ywar, located and rescued the abductees near Leap Ywar Village. During the operation, two ARSA militants were captured along with weapons and ammunition. This incident follows a similar confrontation on May 1, when ARSA opened fire on AA troops investigating their presence in U Shey Kya Village after receiving tips from local residents. https://x.com/ArakanBaynews/status/1920127061911634279
