In southeast Bangladesh, UN refugee agency (UNHCR) has been continuing to ramp up operations amidst the massive flight of ethnic Rohingya from Myanmar.
UNHCR has begun distributing aid shipped via airlift and delivered in dozens of trucks to the area over the weekend, including plastic sheeting and basic relief kits. Images of informal settlement with an estimated 15,000 people near Kutupalong refugee camp outside Cox’s Bazar.
Bangladesh authorities have already begun biometric registration of new arrivals, registering some 1,000 people a day just in Kutupalong. This is a vital protection activity for allowing all agencies to target assistance to the most vulnerable, with better knowledge of how many elderly, children, and other categories are in the camps.
Bangladesh has been home to two official camps since 1991, Kutupalong and Nayapara. With the arrival of such vast numbers over the last weeks, UNHCR has agreed to a Government request to expand services to refugees outside these two camps.
