Myanmar and Bangladesh signed a bilateral “arrangement for return”. UNHCR stands ready to support the voluntary return of all Rohingya refugees in line with international standards.
A steady flow of new refugees continues to cross to safety in Bangladesh from Myanmar’s Rakhine State, with a daily average of 750 new arrivals in November.
UNHCR is supporting the Government of Bangladesh to receive, assist and protect newly arrived refugees and address the needs of host communities.
