  • The body of 70 year old Khatiza Begum is laid to rest in the Balukhali camp in Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh. Khatiza Begum had to flee Kinoce village in Myanmar two weeks ago after the military and local Buddhists attacked and started burning people and houses, shooting people and hacking them with machetes. For 4 days she and her family hid in the jungle and then, due to her old age and asthma, she had to be carried over hills and through paddy fields for 11 days until she and her family reached Bangladesh. For 11 days she and her family slept on riverbanks and under trees. A few days after she reached the camp she started having trouble breathing, which was exacerbated by the constant rainfall and bad camp conditions. She saw a doctor but was not given medication that helped. On September 18th early morning she passed away.

  • CHITTAGONG, BANGLADESH - FEBRUARY 15: The crew of the Nautical Aliya provides relief to Rohingya refugees on February 15, 2017 in Chittagong, Bangladesh. The Rohingya aid ship, Nautical Aliya, carrying 2,200 tons of rice, emergency supplies and aid-workers, docked at Chittagong Port, about 140km from Cox's Bazar where thousands of Rohingya Muslims take refuge. Around 70,000 Rohingya Muslims have fled to Bangladesh from Myanmar since October last year after the Burmese army launched a campaign it calls 'clearance operations' in response to an attack on border police. According to reports, Bangladesh plans to proceed with a controversial plan to relocate tens of thousands of Rohingya refugees from Myanmar to a remote island in Bay of Bengal, despite warnings it is uninhabitable and prone to flooding. The Rohingya, a mostly stateless Muslim group numbering about 1.1 million, are the majority in Rakhine state and smaller communities in Bangladesh, Thailand and Malaysia.
