More than 100 people have been killed in ethnic and religion-related violence in Burma during several days of violence.
A spokesman for the western state of Rakhine said at least 112 people have died in clashes between Rakhine Buddhists and Rohingya Muslims.
Two thousands houses were also burned.
The violence started on October 21 when minority Rohingyas protested at the lack of aid and food in their villages.
The unrest follows communal fighting in June that left dozens of people dead and tens of thousands displaced.
The latest surge of violence prompted the main Islamic organizations in Burma (also known as Myanmar) to cancel celebrations for the Eid al-Adha holiday.
