Covid Chronicles: What is a Home for Rohingya Refugees?

After yet another outbreak of fires on 22 March 2021 at Balukhali refugee camp, the Covid-19 Chronicles from the Margins project received WhatsApp messages with a series of devastating photos of the fires from residents. To date, according to news reports and residents’ confirmations, more than 17,000 shelters have been burnt and destroyed. More than 45,000 people have been affected by the fires. 18 people have died. 560 people injured. More than 400 people missing. Residents also sent us photos of homes from the outside and inside. Their shelters are flimsy and vulnerable to destruction in bad weather. Imagine living life in such a small and difficult space! <br> ----- This material is part of the Covid Chronicles from the Margins project, funded by The Open University and The Hague. The project aims to highlight the impact of the pandemic on refugees, asylum seekers &amp; undocumented migrants. <br> This item can be found on our website.

2021年3月22日，巴卢卡利难民营（Balukhali refugee camp）再次发生火灾后，“边缘群体新冠纪事”（Covid-19 Chronicles from the Margins）项目收到了居民通过WhatsApp发来的一系列火灾现场的惨烈照片。截至目前，据新闻报道及居民证实，已有逾1.7万座避难所被烧毁，超过4.5万人受火灾影响，18人死亡，560人受伤，400余人失踪。居民还向我们发送了住所内外的照片。他们的避难所简陋不堪，在恶劣天气下极易损毁。试想在如此狭小艰难的空间中生活是何种境遇！<br>----- 本资料为“边缘群体新冠纪事”项目的一部分，由开放大学（The Open University）与海牙（The Hague）资助。该项目旨在凸显疫情对难民、寻求庇护者及无证件移民的影响。<br>本条目可在我们的网站上查询。
