Peter Maurer, President of the International Committee of the Red Cross, on July 1 visited the temporary camps in Cox’s Bizar used by Rohingya refugees from Myanmar.
The risk of landslides caused by weeks of flooding forced many to relocate in recent weeks.
On June 28, Kevin J Allen, UNHCR Head of Operations for the Rohingya refugee emergency, said that many refugees living in high risk of landslides were able to relocate to safe, level ground.
