    “At least 15,000 refugees have crossed from eastern Myanmar into northern Thailand since this morning,” said Andrej Mahecic, spokesman for the U.N.‘s refugee agency, which was providing tents and other materials to shelter the refugees. Non-governmental groups also were offering aid, he said from the agency’s headquarters in Geneva. Refugees continued to arrive into the evening, and some independent estimates put their number closer to 20,000.

    Do you think that Andrej Mahecic, spokesman for the U.N.‘s refugee agency is lying?
