Rohingya refugees rally in Bangladesh camps to demand safe return to Myanmar

Tens of thousands of Rohingya refugees rallied in Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh, demanding their safe return to Myanmar, while marking the “Ninth Anniversary of Rohingya Genocide Day.” Diplomatic missions from 15 countries and the European Union called for international support, expressing concern that escalating conflict and humanitarian needs in Rakhine state do not allow for voluntary, safe repatriation.
