Around 250 Rohingya refugees and Bangladeshi nationals, including children, are feared missing after a trawler capsized in the Andaman Sea. The vessel departed from Teknaf in southern Bangladesh on April 4 and was bound for Malaysia.

The UNHCR said the vessel, carrying an estimated 280 people, sank due to heavy winds, rough seas and overcrowding. The Bangladesh Coast Guard rescued nine people, including one woman, on April 9.

Survivor Rafiqul Islam, 40, told AFP he was lured onto the boat by traffickers promising work in Malaysia. He said passengers were held in a storage area, that he was burned by spilled oil and that the group floated for nearly 36 hours before rescue.

In 2017, Myanmar's armed forces launched an offensive that displaced at least 730,000 Rohingya. A UN fact-finding mission concluded the campaign included genocidal acts, a finding Myanmar's government has denied.
