A Turkish field hospital in Bangladesh's Cox Bazar has been providing medical services to thousands of Rohingya refugees who fled Myanmar due to government atrocities since it was first established in 2018.

The hospital was inaugurated in February 2018 by Turkey's Disaster and Emergency Management Presidency (AFAD) with the contributions of the Health Ministry, and it has been providing medical treatment and health care for approximately a thousand patients each day since then.
