Authorities in Bangladesh on Tuesday, June 2, confirmed the first death of a Rohingya refugee amid rising cases of new infections in the sprawling camps in the South Asian country where more than 1 million Rohingya Muslims have been sheltered after fleeing from neighboring Myanmar, according to a doctor and the United Nations. The 71-year-old refugee died Saturday at Ukhiya in Cox's Bazar, but samples collected from him proved positive on Monday, said Abu Toha M.R. Bhuiyan, chief health coordinator of the office of Refugee, Relief and Repatriation Commissioner. (AP Photo/Shafiqur Rahman, File)
