known as “NaTaLa”. For example, in Inn Din, southern Maungdaw Township, there are six
Rohingya hamlets and two small ethnic Rakhine hamlets, one of which is a NaTaLa village.
Satellite imagery analysis demonstrates that most Inn Din villages have been completely
burned during the “clearance operations”, while the NaTaLa village, Pae Youne, is
unaffected. The Mission collected numerous accounts of the targeted burning of Rohingya
settlements in Inn Din by Tatmadaw soldiers and ethnic Rakhine.
