Yet the government and army refuse to recognise their right to citizenship, classifying them \u201cillegal migrants\u201d from Bangladesh and India.<\/p>\n<p>Reports show they have suffered serial ethnic cleansing by Myanmar\u2019s army and factions of Buddhist monks, resulting in mass rape, murder and the exodus of vast numbers to neighbouring Bangladesh, now home to almost a million Rohingya refugees. They continue to demand their civil rights, but have become a forgotten people and what the United Nations has called \u201cone of the most persecuted minorities in the world\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>This film, directed by veteran war reporter Shahida Tulaganova, explores the roots of the violence in Rakhine state, covering the perspectives of Rohingya refugees, former Myanmar government officials and radical Buddhist monks while providing context to the current crisis as well as a chronology of historical events.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aljazeera.com\/program\/featured-documentaries\/2022\/8\/26\/exiled\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Video Duration 48 minutes 00 seconds 48:00 From: Featured Documentaries An in-depth historical overview of the&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2055","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-top-stories"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v21.0 (Yoast SEO v27.4) -
