Burma mobs ‘kill 30 Rohingyas’

More than 30 Rohingya Muslims were killed in attacks by Buddhists last week in Burma’s Rakhine state, the BBC has been told. Two international aid officials who were granted access to the area in the far west of the country said they had found evidence of a mass killing. Human rights group Fortify Rights claims a series of attacks took place over five days last week. The government and local officials have strongly denied claims of a massacre, according to a news agency.
