Hundreds of thousands of Rohingya Muslims have been arriving in Bangladesh with minimal belongings they gathered in a last-minute rush. They say they had to flee to save their lives from assaults by the Myanmar military and the majority Buddhists population, claims the government denies.
The BBC’s Shalu Yadav and Neha Sharma met the refugees in unofficial camps and asked them about belongings they were able to bring and those they had to leave behind.

BBC is a Fake News.
Jeez people here in comment section are being patriotic and harsh on these refugees just cus of their religion @_@ what happened to everyone's human rights and equality that we learnt after the world wars…. Do we really need to have another one?
We are in the 2st century; and situations like this still exist. Where is the Humanity? People need to be brave and stand against violence and see past race and religion.
If you're part of a group that moves into another culture/country and commits violence against them you have to understand why they, in turn, commit violence against you. Two sides to every story.
POOR MUSLIMS, WHY WON'T MYANMAR JUST LET THEM KILL POLICE OFFICERS AND START RIOTS?
BBC will open up is-ra-El for them!
Islam is the problem in this world
The islamic ARSA have been causing trouble since the riots in 2012. I stand with Burma.
Meanwhile, people are talking about the new iPhone X.
This comment section is cancer. People are being thrown from their home country, burnt, killed. Why are people trying to justify such a terrible thing?
Us Americans too spoiled
Now BBC wants to bomb Burma with their 'Freedom and Democracy' just like Syria.
The object of last year was Syria.
The object of this year is Myanmar.
When 400,000 Christians were made refugees by Jihadists in CAR the BBC remained silent. When the remaining Christians decided to defend themselves, the BBC headline ran Christians attack Muslims. Fake News BBC.
BBC will you actually tell us about how this situation came about, yes it is very unpleasant but it is the result of Islamic expansionism, Islam is the root of the problem, is it any wonder Burma are so defensive when they are surrounded by jungle jihad, it was inevitable that Burmese would snap and fight back, at least report this in a neutral mode.
👍
