An estimated sixty percent of the refugees arriving in Bangladesh are children and a large amount of them arriving alone. Leaders around the world, including in the United States, are still trying to figure out how to face the situation and deal with the leader of Myanmar – Aung San Suu Kyi. Kyi has previously been a Nobel Peace Prize laureate who has been largely democratic in his ideals. However, he has currently been unable to stop the country’s army from the vicious assault on the Rohingya people. In this photo, refugees cross over a canal in the Naf River as they attempt to flee from Myanmar into Bangladesh.
