At least six Rohingya refugees were killed by landslides or drowned in flooding after rain inundated refugee camps in Bangladesh over recent days, deepening the despair among those living there.
Knee-deep waters coursed through the camps, battering fragile shelters made of bamboo and tarpaulin and making at least 5,000 people homeless, according to the UN’s refugee agency (UNHCR).
Three children were killed, including two when their shelter collapsed, a Save the Children spokesperson said.
“They had to flee their shelters with nothing, they just took what they were wearing because the water was flooding so quickly,” said Yasmin Ara, founder of the Rohingya Women Development Forum. “They need some financial support, food and clothes, because they have nothing to wear and also they are not getting medical support.”
