SITTWE, Myanmar - A human rights team revealed issue for the security of thousands of Muslims on Saturday after disclosing satellite images of a once-thriving coastal community reduced to ashes throughout a week of physical violence in western Myanmar. The images released by the New York-based Human Rights Watch program "near total destruction" of a mostly Rohingya Muslim part of Kyaukpyu, one of numerous locations in Rakhine state where battles in between Rohingyas and ethnic Rakhine Buddhists threaten to derail the previous Burma's vulnerable democratic change. Even more than 811 buildings and houseboats were razed in Kyaukpyu on Oct. 24, obliging lots of Rohingya to flee north by sea toward the state capital Sittwe, Human Rights Watch said.
