Dhaka: On Tuesday, about 180 Rohingya Muslims fleeing desperate conditions in Bangladesh camps were presumed to have drowned possibly after their boats broke apart. Rights groups recorded a major rise in the number of Rohingya leaving the camps in Bangladesh from about 500 in 2021 to some 2,400 this year. Moreover, nearly 1 million Rohingya from Myanmar live in crowded facilities in Muslim-majority Bangladesh.
