BANDA ACEH, Indonesia: More than 100 Rohingya Muslims traveling in a wooden boat have landed on an Indonesian beach, the second group in as many days to arrive in the Southeast Asian archipelago's northernmost province of Aceh.

The group of 61 men, 36 women and 22 children that landed in North Aceh district's Bluka Teubai village on Wednesday morning were taken to the fishermen's hall and will stay there while waiting for further information from local authorities, said Nawafil Mahyudha, head of the Dewantara subdistrict.
