Description
Rohingya refugee Shonjida has endured years of boredom, misery and violence in Bangladesh -- but last month's overthrow of autocratic ex-premier Sheikh Hasina has given her fresh hope for the future.
Hasina was initially lauded by the international community in 2017 for opening the borders to hundreds of thousands of Rohingya fleeing a Myanmar military crackdown. But the years since have seen rampant malnutrition and regular gun battles in camps, whose inhabitants hope that Hasina's ouster will bring renewed attention to their plight. "We and our children live in fear at night because of the shootings," 42-year-old Shonjida, who goes by one name, told AFP.
