Highlights Nearly 1.2 million refugees live in highly congested camps in Cox’s Bazar, with over 140,000 new arrivals since late 2024 further straining services. Armed violence remains a major protection concern for Rohingya children in 2025, with widespread violations including recruitment, abduction, killing and maiming, sexual violence, and attacks on education facilities.
