UN says 123,600 refugees enter Bangladesh from Myanmar

Cox's Bazar : Nearly 125,000 refugees, mostly Rohingya Muslims, have entered Bangladesh since an upsurge in violence in neighbouring Myanmar on August 25, the United Nations said Tuesday.

Some 37,000 have arrived in the last 24 hours -- the highest number of arrivals in a single day since the unrest began.
