UN must act urgently

The Myanmar army has been committing crimes against humanity. Their brutality has crossed all limits. They have been mercilessly torturing and killing innocent Rohingyas, setting fire to their houses and looting their belongings.

Bangladesh is doing her best to help the Rohingya refugees who have entered our country just to save their lives from the brutality of the Myanmar forces. The world must condemn these evil acts and create pressure on Myanmar government to stop the genocide.

It's time the UN took stern action against Myanmar. I strongly feel that it should send peacekeeping forces to the country in order to protect the Rohingya people, thereby restoring peace in the Rakhine state.
