In August 2017, Rohingya refugees flooded into Bangladesh as Myanmar soldiers rased their villages and engaged in mass killings and rapes. [Yassin Abdumonab/EPA]
The United Nations says the military crackdown was carried out with "genocidal intent". The United States have called it a genocide, and The Gambia has brought a genocide case against Myanmar before the International Court of Justice. [Yassin Abdumonab/EPA]
Conditions in the refugee camps, where more than half the residents are children, have deteriorated due to funding cuts and reduced food rations, aid agencies say. [Yassin Abdumonab/EPA]
One in three refugees is expected to face "crisis" levels of hunger or worse between September and December, according to the charity Save the Children. [Yassin Abdumonab/EPA]
Bangladesh's government has previously tried to begin repatriation at least twice, but the efforts have stalled because none of the refugees was willing to return to Myanmar, citing security concerns. [Yassin Abdumonab/EPA]
The United Council of Rohingya says it organised the rally to "remember the atrocities committed". [Abdul Goni/Anadolu]
