Rohingya refugees demand safe return to Myanmar on 8th anniversary of exodus to Bangladesh
Tens of thousands of Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh have marked the eighth anniversary of their exodus from Myanmar.
The refugees gathered Monday in an open field at a camp in Kutupalong, in the Cox’s Bazar district in southeastern Bangladesh, the site of a large refugee camp. They carried banners reading “No more refugee life” and “Repatriation the ultimate solution.” They were marking what they called “Rohingya Genocide Remembrance Day.”
