Rohingya Muslims who fled their homes due to the ongoing operations conducted by Myanmar's security forces in Rakhine State, make their way through muddy water after crossing the Bangladesh-Myanmar border on September 5, 2017 in Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh. Violence erupted in Myanmar's Rakhine state on Aug. 25 when the country's security forces launched an operation against the Rohingya Muslim community. It triggered a fresh influx of refugees towards neighboring Bangladesh, though the country sealed off its border to refugees. Media reports said Myanmar security forces used disproportionate force, displacing thousands of Rohingya villagers and destroying their homes with mortars and machine guns.
