STORYLINE:
More than 100 weak and hungry Rohingya Muslim refugees were among the latest group to reach ashore in Indonesia on Sunday after a long and dangerous journey aboard a wooden boat.
The group of 184 people, including a pregnant woman and children, landed at the Kuala Gigieng beach in Indonesia’s northernmost province of Aceh, which has already received more than 500 Rohingya last year.
The refugees say they’re seeking better opportunities than being stuck in overcrowded camps in Bangladesh, where they fled military persecution across the border in Myanmar.
Fishermen on Saturday reported seeing three boats suspected to be carrying refugees, but only one landed on Sunday.
The United Nations reported that 26 refugees died last month of dehydration and exhaustion after weeks at sea.
Faisal, one of Rohingya on the boat said they have been on board for 27 days since they left from Bangladesh.
"In Bangladesh there are no opportunity for Rohingyas refugees," he said.
More than 700,000 Rohingya Muslims have fled from Buddhist-majority Myanmar to refugee camps in Bangladesh since August 2017.
Myanmar security forces have been accused of mass rapes, killings and burning thousands of Rohingya homes.
Most of the refugees leaving the camps by sea attempt to reach Muslim-dominated Malaysia, but end up in Indonesia along the way.
"We have only just met them today, we will of course conduct an assessment to assess their international protection needs which later on we'll be able to determine their status,” said Diovio Alfath, UNHCR legal associate on the field.
