A young Rohingya refugee in southern Bangladesh stares out from the winning picture in the professional “Current Affairs” catergory of the World Photography Awards.
Repressed and persecuted in Myanmar (Burma), the Rohingya, a Muslim minority, have sought refuge in neighboring countries such as Bangladesh for more than 50 years, according to Spanish photographer Javier Arcenillas. Once across the border, many Rohingya survive in makeshift camps with little or no basic amenities, including food and water.
Your daily dose of stunning.
