Rohingya Exodus

Rohingya Muslims, trying to cross the Naf River into Bangladesh to escape sectarian violence in Myanmar, look on from an intercepted boat in Teknaf on June 11, 2012. Bangladesh on Wednesday refused three more boatloads of Rohingya Muslims fleeing sectarian violence in Myanmar, officials said, despite growing calls for the border to be opened. Bangladeshi guards have turned back 16 boats carrying more than 660 Rohingya people, most of them women and children, since June 11 as they tried to enter from neighboring Myanmar across the river Naf.
