A state of emergency has been declared in part
of western Myanmar after several days of rioting and violence in Rakhine State
- despite a build-up of government security forces in the area. Villagers set
fire to houses on the outskirts of Sittwe township. The attacks are part of
long-standing tensions between Buddhist residents and minority Muslims, as
Dorsa Jabbari reports.
