Massive fire displaces thousands in Rohingya refugee camps

On Sunday, the Rohingya refugee camps in southeastern Bangladesh were devastated by a massive fire, which led to the displacement of approximately 12,000 individuals, according to officials.

The catastrophe occurred amidst worsening circumstances at the Kutupalong mega camp, which houses almost a million Rohingya, the majority of whom sought refuge after fleeing from Myanmar’s military in a genocidal offensive in 2017.
