Rohingya refugees' desperate struggle
Rohingya refugees line up to get food aid from a local NGO after arriving from Myanmar at the Balukali refugee camp in Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh. More than half a million Rohingya refugees have flooded into Bangladesh to flee an offensive by Myanmar's military that the United Nations has called "a textbook example of ethnic cleansing." The refugee population is expected to swell further, with thousands more Rohingya Muslims making the perilous journey on foot toward the border, or paying smugglers to take them across by water in wooden boats.
