August 25, 2022 marked five years since the Myanmar military launched attacks against the Rohingya community across the western part of the country’s Rakhine state. Launched in response to the sporadic attacks coordinated by a shadowy Rohingya militant group, the massacre , drove more than 740,000 civilians across the Naf River into Bangladesh. Since fleeing the threat of genocide, Rohingya refugees remain completely aid-dependent, neither legally recognised as citizens of Myanmar, the country that drove them out, nor legally considered as refugees by Bangladesh, the country that currently hosts them.
