It is one of the newly created expansion areas to house both new Rohingya refugees who are continuing to flee Myanmar’s Rakhine state and those being relocated from other areas of the camp.
More than 5,000 people have arrived since the year began, and an estimated 693,000 Rohingya have fled mass violence and persecution since 25 August 2017 and crossed the border into Bangladesh.
Across the 120 acres of newly-prepared, hilly ground, the camp continues to grow. Not just day by day, but hour by hour; bulldozers work day and night, workers dig with spades and shovels.
