“Many of the Rohingya evacuated on the first day were registered refugees. They have been sent to their registered camps. Those who were not registered have also been sent to camps at the end of their registration process,” Mizanur said.
The 273 Rohingya evacuated on the second day will also be sent to refugee camps.
On Jan 8, a gunfight took place between insurgent groups Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army and the Rohingya Solidarity Organisation over the control of the camp at Konarpara Zero Line on the Tumbru border. The incident left one Rohingya dead and two children injured. Almost all houses in the camp were set on fire in the wake of the clashes.
