UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - A senior U.N. aid official said on Tuesday she had witnessed a level of human suffering never seen before in camps for some 140,000 stateless Muslim Rohingya in Myanmar's Rakhine state, displaced by Buddhist-Muslim violence sparked in 2012.
Deputy Emergency Relief Coordinator Kyung-Wha Kang visited Myanmar last week, travelling to western Rakhine state and northern Kachin state, where more than 100,000 people have been displaced since fighting between ethnic minority insurgents and the government erupted in June 2011, ending a 17-year ceasefire.
