Bangladesh’s coast guard has rescued 396 starving Rohingya refugees who had been wandering at sea for weeks after stopping working to reach Malaysia.

Bottom line:

  • The refugees were found significantly malnourished after numerous weeks adrift at sea after supposedly being denied asylum in Malaysia
  • The UNHCR has actually used to assist the Bangladesh Federal government with the care of those saved
  • Another boat carrying 200 refugees was denied asylum in Malaysia however they were provided food by authorities

At least 32 ethnic Rohingya died on the ship throughout those week
