The Rohingya refugee crisis in South Asia primarily involves the Rohingya Muslims fleeing persecution from Myanmar. Since 2017, escalating violence by Myanmar’s military has driven over a million Rohingya into neighboring Bangladesh, creating one of the world’s largest refugee camps in Cox’s Bazar. The refugees face dire conditions, including overcrowding, inadequate sanitation, and limited access to education and healthcare. Tensions with local communities and pressures on resources have exacerbated the situation. While international organizations provide humanitarian aid, the crisis remains unresolved, with many refugees unable to return to Myanmar due to ongoing violence and instability. The situation highlights the urgent need for a durable solution, including international support and diplomatic efforts to address the root causes of displacement.
