Ethnic violence in western Myanmar

The 2012 Rakhine State riots were a series of conflicts primarily between ethnic Rakhine Buddhists and Rohingya Muslims in northern Rakhine State, Myanmar, though by October Muslims of all ethnicities had begun to be targeted. The riots came after weeks of sectarian disputes, including the gang rape and murder of a Rakhine woman, which police allege was committed by three Rohingya Muslims.
