Myanmar says Rohingya genocide case at world court is 'flawed and unfounded'
  • Myanmar's foreign ministry has described the genocide case against it at the International Court of Justice regarding the treatment of the Rohingya minority as 'flawed and unfounded.' The court has initiated three weeks of hearings following allegations made by The Gambia related to a military crackdown in 2017.
  • This statement from Myanmar highlights the ongoing tensions surrounding the Rohingya issue and reflects the country's stance against international scrutiny. The outcome of the hearings could have significant implications for Myanmar's international relations and its accountability for human rights violations.
