Wednesday 28 July 07:48<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nDue to heavy raining and landslide, conditions in Rohingya Refugee Camps in Cox’s Bazar Bangladesh become very dire. Water is flooding in all low land areas tearing hundreds of shelters down drowned into water and many people got injured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yesterday there was heavy landslides in the refugee camp in Bangladesh. Everything is flooded in various refugee camps right now due to landslide. Fire survivor\u2019s families have been suffering a long time and also need for shelters. Now again their lives are suffering due to rainy season, landslide and flooding. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
People can\u2019t cook and can\u2019t stay inside their shelters where the water is knee high. They have lost their homes all their belonging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Please think, what Rohingyas again have to go through!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Many shelters & bridges have been damaged by the landslides and flooding in the camp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Please keep them in your Duwa (prayers) for these Victims. <\/p>\n\n\n\nPhoto courtesy of AB and family rendered homeless by floods<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nSunday 1st<\/sup> August 11:56<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nToday, Registered Rohingya refugees rally to express their suffering and declare a hunger strike so that the UNHCR and international community acknowledge our suffering and help us.

Subject : Hunger strike. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dear sir \/ madam <\/p>\n\n\n\n
With due respect and humble submission that we have been Refugee in the Registered camp Since 1992 and have lived for 30 years according to the law of Bangladesh and the National Union. But we didn\u2019t get that right as a refugee. That’s why we did the hunger strike, the main point of our hunger strike is durable solution not WFP food Card, we didn\u2019t receive our service from WFP to get durable Solution from 1 st July to 31 july. Some families from Kutupalong Registered camp didnot receive any service from WFP and others NGOs From 1 st October 2018 to till now due to mentioned Issues. We don\u2019t want to take any NGO\u2019S service from Next time until durable solution. We don\u2019t want to live as long refugee life. I am looking forward to your positive response as soon as possible with your kindness. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Your sincerely <\/p>\n\n\n\n
General Refugee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
