Advocacy groups for the Rohingyas have said around 400 Rohingyas were killed, women were raped and Rohingya villages burnt. A Kwala lumpur rally led by Najib Razak the Malaysian Prime minister was attended by thousands of Rohingyas main refugees to tell the Myanmar state counselor Ang San Suu Kyi that “enough is enough”.
