The Rohingya are a large ethnic and religious group originating mainly from Myanmar, a country with a Buddhist majority. They have suffered persecution and violence in the country for years, as the Myanmar government refuses to recognize them as one of the country’s 135 ethnic minorities and consider them equal citizens. Since 2017, more than 700,000 Rohingya have fled the country due to escalating violence and live in refugee camps in neighboring Bangladesh.
