The state-run newspaper Global Light of Myanmar has reported that seven members of the Myanmar army have been sentenced to 10 years jail with hard labor for killing 10 Rohingya men last year.
An internal investigation was carried out by the country’s military following the discovery of the bodies of the 10 men in a mass grave in Inn Din, a village in western Rakhine State in September 2017.
Since August 2017, more than 670,000 Rohingya Muslim refugees have fled Myanmar into neighboring Bangladesh, bringing with them stories of murder and destruction at the hands of the country's military, which the UN says amounts to ethnic cleansing.
