9th Rohingya Genocide Remembrance Day
Today, 25 August 2026, the Rohingya Women Empowerment Alliance (RWEA) joins Rohingya communities in Cox’s Bazar refugee camps in marking the 9th Rohingya Genocide Remembrance Day.
We remember those who were killed & gang r**e, honour survivors, and stand with Rohingya women, girls, families, and communities who continue to seek justice, dignity, safety, and a sustainable future.
“Justice delayed is justice denied.”
Nine years have passed since the 2017 atrocities, yet justice remains elusive. Rohingya who remained in Rakhine State have also faced further violence and abuses amid the conflict in 2024 and 2025. RWEA calls for accountability for all perpetrators of violations against Rohingya civilians, regardless of who they are, including accountability for alleged abuses committed by the Military and Arakan Army (AA).
Justice must be universal. The suffering of Rohingya civilians must never be ignored, and impunity must not be allowed to continue.
Nine years later, our message remains: Remember. Speak out. Demand justice. End impunity.
