A warning that some of the images in this report may be disturbing.
Rights groups have condemned what they say was the massacre of more than 600 Rohingya civilians in western Myanmar.
Survivors say entire families were burned alive or executed last year, by the Arakan Army – a powerful rebel group.
Al Jazeera’s Tanvir Chowdhury has more from Dhaka in Bangladesh, where thousands of Rohingya have sought refuge.
Nay San Lwin is the Co-Chair of the newly formed “Arakan Rohingya National Council”, also known as ARNC.
He says survivors are demanding justice and want the UN Security Council to discuss the issue immediately.
