» New, deadly fighting has broken out in Myanmar's most troubled state. It's not the army and police attacking defenceless Rohingya this time, but the Arakan Army (AA), a Buddhist force demanding greater regional autonomy.

They killed 13 policemen, wounded nine others and apparently suffered no casualties.
