Tragic Death of Young Rohingya Child in Bangladesh

It is with great sadness that we report the death of a young Rohingya child in Bangladesh. The incident occurred after a concrete slab collapsed in a disused facility where several children were playing. The cause of the collapse is currently unknown, and an investigation is underway to determine the circumstances that led to this tragic event.

The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) in Bangladesh extends our heartfelt condolences to the family and friends of the deceased child. Our thoughts are with them during this difficult time as they mourn the loss of their loved one.

This heartbreaking incident serves as a stark reminder of the precarious living conditions faced by many Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh. With limited access to safe and adequate housing, many families are forced to live in overcrowded and unsafe facilities, putting their lives at risk on a daily basis.

UNHCR continues to advocate for improved living conditions for Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh, including access to safe and secure housing. We call on the international community to support efforts to provide better protection and assistance to vulnerable populations, including children, who are most at risk in these challenging environments.

As of the time of this reporting, the cause of the young child’s death remains unknown. UNHCR is working closely with local authorities to investigate the incident and ensure that measures are put in place to prevent similar tragedies from occurring in the future.

We urge all parties involved to prioritize the safety and well-being of Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh and take immediate action to address the underlying issues that contribute to these dangerous living conditions. Every child deserves the right to live in a safe and secure environment, free from harm and danger.
