Fighting in Myanmar’s Rakhine State between the country’s military and the local Arakan Army , which is getting the upper hand, has prevented the resupply of food and water to Saint Martin’s Island, which is located along the maritime border between Bangladesh and Myanmar. Pope : Let us always pray for the Chinese people, great in courage and culture
Since the start of the month, several Bangladeshi boats have been involved in violent incidents. A cargo ship, a boat carrying officials and a speedboat were shot at over the span of a few days. Recently, “a ship arrived with food and other daily essentials” provided by the Cox’s Bazar district administration, but “if the boats don’t start running again normally the crisis won’t be solved,” he added.
Meantime, the situation is getting worse on the island. In Teknaf, people are reporting frequent explosions, which are preventing people in some areas from sleeping, while warplanes and helicopters – probably from the military – are flying over surrounding areas. For its part, Bangladesh has deployed warships around Saint Martin’s and is using diplomatic channels to find a solution. According to media close to Myanmar’s military regime, the Bangladeshi ambassador to Myanmar met with the foreign minister to"discuss cooperation for peace and stability along the border.”
