Two Myanmar Rohingya community leaders killed in Bangladesh


COX'S BAZAR, Bangladesh, Oct 16, 2022 (AFP): A mob of a dozen people hacked to death two Rohingya community leaders in Bangladesh, police said Sunday, as security worsens in camps housing almost a million refugees.

Bangladesh has been housing Myanmar Rohingya refugees in a vast sprawl of camps since they fled a military crackdown in Myanmar in 2017 that is now the subject of a genocide investigation at the UN's top court.
