Rohingya refugee children raise their hands and shout that they won't go back to Myanmar during a demonstration at Kutupalong, Bangladesh today
BANGLADESH blocked the repatriation of almost 700,000 Rohingya refugees to Myanmar today over fears that they were being forced to return.
Refugee and repatriation commissioner Abul Kalam halted the returns, agreed to begin tomorrow, saying: “The main thing is that the process has to be voluntary.”
He added that paperwork for returning refugees had not yet been finalised and transit camps had yet to be built in Bangladesh.
