The U.N. has described the violence in Myanmar as ethnic cleansing. Hasina said the government was pursuing a plan to build temporary shelters for the Rohingya on an island with the help of international aid agencies whom she praised for their support. Hasina accused Myanmar of creating tensions at the border, but said she has asked the country's security forces to deal with the crisis very carefully. More than 500,000 Rohingya Muslims have crossed over to Bangladesh since late August, when Myanmar security forces responded to militant attacks with a broad crackdown that witnesses and rights groups say has included killing and arson. They pretended like they wanted a war, she said. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
