Report: Conditions Unsafe for Return of Rohingya Refugees to Myanmar
Published on: Wednesday 10 July 2019
Conditions in Myanmar are far too dangerous for the safe, dignified return of hundreds of thousands of Rohingya refugees who have fled to Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh, to escape violence and persecution in their home country, according to a report by the U.N. Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights.
More than 730,000 Rohingya refugees are living in squalid, overcrowded camps in Cox's Bazar. While conditions in Bangladesh remain dire, U.N. officials say the situation in Myanmar's northern Rakhine state is worse and far more threatening.
