The Bangladesh government has relocated nearly 20,000 Rohingya refugees to a remote island without adequate health care, livelihoods, or protection. And they are fearful as monsoon season approaches.
Bangladesh is finding it hard to cope with over a million Rohingya refugees, but forcing people to a remote island creates new problems.
Refugees described inadequate health facilities on the island, which has no emergency medical care services. If referred by a doctor and permitted by the island authorities, refugees have to travel three hours by boat and then two hours by road to the nearest mainland hospital for emergency care.

Human Rights Watch has documented multiple killings by police, as well as beatings, sexual abuse, and arbitrary detention of demonstrators and bystanders.
