A report has found the existence of at least five previously unreported mass graves in a village in Myanmar's Rakhine state, where scores of Rohingya were allegedly massacred and buried by the military. In an investigation, the Associated Press has confirmed the existence of at least 5 mass graves. According to the report, Myanmar has cut off access to Gu Dar Pyin, so it's unclear just how many people died. "We are deeply, deeply troubled by those reports of mass graves," State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert told a regular news briefing. Stephane Dujarric said the UN was “very concerned” about the possible mass graves.
