Hand in Hand for Refugees
Hundreds of thousands of Rohingya Muslims have been forced to flee from their homes in Myanmar. The government of Myanmar claims the Rohingya people are illegal immigrants from neighboring Bangladesh and has denied them citizenship, leaving them stateless. Religious clashes in Myanmar, a Buddhist-majority country, have driven more than 400,000 Rohingya Muslims out of the country, provoking the UN and their top human rights officials to call the campaign against "ethnic cleansing."
