Heavy rain and wind were also observed in makeshift camps in Cox’s Bazaar, as well as at zero-point.

Due to the construction of the bridge at no man’s land, rainwater could not flow away and caused a flood at no man’s land between the border of Burma (Myanmar) and Bangladesh.

Since last night no Rohingya at no man’s land could remain in their shelters due to water accumulation.

Until now no news of assistance from any INGO’s or Aid organizations were heard from sufferers.

Later, from makeshift camps such as Balukhali, Tenghali and many other nearby (from camp 24-37), were also spotted at similar flooded conditions.

Flood in the camps also accelerated landslide from the nearby hills and Rohingya in those area are at high risk of death or injury.
