US says holds Myanmar military leaders accountable in Rohingya crisis

By David Brunnstrom and Jonathan Landay

Tillerson, however, stopped short of saying whether the United States would take any action against Myanmar's military leaders over an offensive that has driven more than 500,000 Rohingya Muslims out of the country.
