}}{{Quote|Four years ago, I witnessed hundreds of thousands of Rohingya fleeing into Bangladesh by foot with only the clothes on their backs. They described in disturbingly consistent detail the tactics of the Myanmar military: surrounding villages, setting fires, and shooting people as they fled. The U.S. State Department, among many other organizations, has collected a mountain of evidence since. [Secretary of State Anthony Blinken] should hesitate no longer in making a genocide determination.|Daniel Sullivan, the current Refugees International Senior Advocate for Human Rights.}}The '''Rohingya [[Genocide]]''' is a series of ongoing persecutions by the Myanmar military of the Muslim Rohingya people. 

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 crisis forced over a million Rohingya to flee to other countries. 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.
