Cyclone Mocha, a formidable storm with winds reaching 195kph (120mph) and heavy
rainfall, has struck the coastlines of Bangladesh and Myanmar, posing a
significant threat to vulnerable populations and the world's largest refugee
camp.
With storm surges and potential flooding, hundreds of thousands of people
have been evacuated, and fears mount over
the safety of the Rohingya refugees in Cox's Bazar. The cyclone, forecasted as
the most powerful in two decades, has caused disruption, damage, and casualties,
highlighting the dire situation faced by these communities in the wake of
consecutive crises.
Humanitarian agencies are bracing for the worst as they navigate the
challenges of the unfolding disaster. |
