Rohingya Refugees Flood Into Bangladesh
A Rohingya Muslim refugee woman with her child in Kutupalong, Bangladesh, on September 9, 2017. International divisions emerged on September 12 ahead of a UN Security Council meeting on a worsening refugee crisis in Myanmar, with China voicing support for a military crackdown that has been criticised by the US, slammed as 'ethnic cleansing' and forced 370,000 Rohingya to flee the violence. Beijing's intervention appears aimed at heading off any attempt to censure Myanmar at the council when it convenes on September 13. (Photo by Khandaker Azizur Rahman Sumon/NurPhoto)
