Thai authorities along the country’s northwestern border braced themselves Monday for a possible influx of more ethnic Karen villagers fleeing new airstrikes from the Myanmar military.

Thai soldiers began sending back some of the thousands of people who have fled a series of airstrikes by the military in neighboring Myanmar, people familiar with the matter said Monday.

The headline uses the euphemism "complicating" which triggered me to actually dig into the article to see what's going on. The facts constituting the meat of this article: - Thai soldiers forced back thousands of Myanmar refugees who were fleeing airstrikes by their military. The soldiers knew that they were sending the refugees back into an unsafe situation. Simultaneously, the Thai government has denied that they were forcing refugees to go back while the Thai Prime Minister said that they didn't want "mass migration" but were preparing for an influx of people and they would take human rights issues into consideration. - The UN Security Council is having a closed meeting on the problems in Myanmar. They have previously condemned the violence and called for a restoration of democracy but they have not considered sanctions, which would require at least abstention on the issue from China. - The UN Secretary General had strong words for the Myanmar military. - Thai soldiers refused to let journalists or curious locals approach or speak with refugees. - An estimated 10,000 people have been displaced inside Myanmar's northern state, Karen. - 459 people have been killed since the military ended democracy in Myanmar, though nobody knows what the true number is. I fail to see how the headline's use of the word "complicating" is anything other than whitewashing the unethical foot-dragging the UN is doing.
