Rohingya schools in Malaysia close amid hate speech surge

Rohingya refugee children in Malaysia are facing school closures after a surge in online hate speech, including violent threats and a petition to remove them. At least nine schools have shut down due to safety fears or government action, following posts encouraging violence and location reporting. The home minister said refugees cannot be arbitrarily deported, but activists warn closures worsen social issues like child marriage. The UN expressed concern over dehumanizing narratives.
