Over 500 Rohingya refugees missing following boat sinkings near Myanmar
United Nations agencies report that more than 500 Rohingya individuals are presumed dead following the capsizing of two vessels near the Myanmar coast. The UNHCR and IOM stated they are deeply worried about the likely massive loss of life, though they noted that the specific incidents and death tolls have not yet been formally verified. The boats had set sail from Rakhine State in Myanmar toward the end of June.
