In late 2016, Myanmar's armed forces and police started a major crackdown on the people in Rakhine State in the country's northwestern region. Since then, the Rohingya people have been persecuted on a regular basis by the government and nationalist Buddhists. The persecution of Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar dates back to the 1970s. Most fled to Bangladesh, resulting in the creation of the world's largest refugee camp, while others escaped to India, Thailand, Malaysia, and other parts of South and Southeast Asia, where they continue to face persecution. The crisis forced over a million Rohingya to flee to other countries. The genocide has consisted of two phases to date: the first was a military crackdown that occurred from October 2016 to January 2017, and the second has been occurring since August 2017. The Rohingya genocide is a series of ongoing persecutions and killings of the Muslim Rohingya people, perpetrated by the Burmese military.
