There are about 1 million members of the primarily Muslim Rohingya community living in squalid refugee camps in Cox's Bazar on the southeastern coast of Bangladesh. Many fled the 2017 military clampdown in neighboring Myanmar, which led to one of the worst humanitarian crises in the world. Though Bangladesh agreed to host the Rohingya, it is largely international aid organizations that have paid the bills. But recently the World Food Programme (WFP) announced that it would have to cut aid because of a $125 million (€117 million) shortfall. The UN organization said that, starting in March, monthly food vouchers would be reduced from $12 to $10 per person. It also warned that there would probably be more cuts if more funds did not come in imminently. In the refugee camps in Bangladesh, that has had a devastating impact.
