In a landmark case, the top court of the UN orders Myanmar to prevent acts of genocide against the country's persecuted Rohingya minority and to stop destroying evidence
The top court of the United Nations has ordered Myanmar to prevent acts of genocide against the country's persecuted Rohingya minority and to stop destroying evidence, in a landmark case at The Hague.
The case was brought to the International Court of Justice in the Netherlands by the tiny West African nation of Gambia, which in November alleged that Myanmar committed"genocidal acts" that"were intended to destroy the Rohingya as a group" through mass murder, rape, and destruction of communities.
Inside Myanmar's open-air prisons 02:10Gambia's arguments are based on the UN Fact-Finding Mission's 2018 and 2019 reports that extensively detail atrocities carried out by the Myanmar military against Rohingya Muslims, and call for the country's generals to face an international tribunal on charges of genocide.
