This is the best summary I could come up with:
A crowd of Indonesian university students stormed a temporary shelter for Rohingya refugees from Myanmar in the western city of Banda Aceh, demanding their deportation.
They chanted “kick them out” and “reject Rohingyas in Aceh,” as women and children stood in tears and praying men looked to the ground.
The United Nations Refugee Agency (UNHCR) condemned the incident, which it said was triggered by a coordinated online campaign of misinformation and hate speech.
"The mob broke a police cordon and forcibly put 137 refugees on two trucks, and moved them to another location in Banda Aceh.
The Rohingya, the Muslim people inhabiting western Myanmar, have been fleeing the Asian country due to facing discrimination and abuse.
Indonesian President Joko Widodo has blamed the latest surge in Rohingya arrivals on human trafficking.
