Hearings Open at UN Court Over Myanmar's Rohingya Crackdown

VOA News

   [1]The International Court of Justice opened a historic three-day
   hearing Tuesday into accusations of genocide brought against Myanmar
   over the military's brutal 2017 crackdown against the Rohingya Muslims.

   The hearings are based on a lawsuit filed last month at the United
   Nations-sponsored court in The Hague by the small West African nation
   Gambia, on behalf of the 57-member Organization for Islamic
   Cooperation. Gambia is accusing Myanmar of violating the 1948 Genocide
   Convention.
