OIC Renews Call for Justice and Accountability on the Eighth Anniversary of Atrocities against Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar

Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC)

26-08-2025

On the eighth anniversary of the mass atrocities committed against the Rohingya Muslim minority in Myanmar's Rakhine state, the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) reiterates its unwavering support for the Rohingya people and reaffirms its steadfast commitment to justice, accountability, and the protection of human rights.
The OIC stands in solidarity with the Rohingya Muslims, who continue to face persecution, statelessness, and forced displacement. Over one million Rohingya remain in refugee camps in Bangladesh and other host countries, enduring difficult conditions and facing uncertain futures, while many thousands remain internally displaced within Myanmar, subject to mass killings, systemic discrimination, and ongoing gross violations of their rights.
The OIC fully supports international efforts, including proceedings at the International Court of Justice (ICJ), to hold perpetrators of heinous crimes against the Rohingya Muslims accountable. The OIC underscores the responsibility of all parties involved in the conflict, especially the Myanmar military and the Arakan Army, to ensure the protection of the Rohingya people inside Myanmar in full compliance with the provisional measures ordered by the ICJ.
The OIC also commends the People's Republic of Bangladesh and other OIC Member States for their continued generosity in hosting Rohingya refugees and appreciates the support extended by many OIC Member States to this community.
The OIC calls upon the international community to sustain its support for vital humanitarian assistance and urges Myanmar to take concrete steps toward ensuring the safe, dignified, voluntary, and sustainable return of the Rohingya to their homeland in Myanmar. The OIC further reiterates its call for reinforced international solidarity and coordinated action to address the root causes of this issue and to work toward a comprehensive, just, and durable solution.
On this day of remembrance, the OIC pays tribute to the courage and resilience of the Rohingya Muslims and reaffirms its pledge to continue advocating for their rights on the international stage.
