Qatar Charity (QC) provided gas cylinders to 17,793 Rohingya refugees in Bhasan Char, an island in Bangladesh, and free healthcare services to 1,063 refugees in Cox's Bazar. This is part of Qatar Charity’s ongoing humanitarian interventions for the benefit of Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh.

Qatar Charity’s relief team, in coordination with the government authorities and UNHCR, distributed cooking gas cylinders to the refugee families in Bhasan Char. Meanwhile, more than 1,000 refugees received medical treatment at the health care center established by Qatar Charity at Chakmarkul Camp-21 in Cox’s Bazar.

The government officials of Bangladesh thanked Qatar Charity for implementing the projects to benefit the Rohingyas refugees in the country.

The beneficiary refugees also expressed their happiness with receiving assistance from Qatar Charity. Ms. Nur Fatema said, "We regularly receive support from Qatar Charity, which has a positive impact on our daily lives." Mr. Azizur Rahman stated, "Our lives depend on relief assistance," noting that Qatar Charity has continued to provide aid since the very beginning of the Rohingya refugee crisis.

Ms. Rumana Begum said, "During my pregnancy, I received medical consultations and treatment from Qatar Charity's health center, which is a blessing for us as refugees.

Mohammad Mustafa said, “My child suffered acute abdominal pain last month. He was cured after receiving treatment from Qatar Charity’s health center, which really plays a vital role in providing healthcare services to Rohingya refugees.”

It's worth mentioning that Qatar Charity, since the beginning of the Rohingya refugee crisis and their displacement to Bangladesh, continues to carry out various humanitarian interventions for them. This includes providing shelter materials, delivering urgent relief aid, offering healthcare services, and providing clean drinking water. A total of 231,966 refugees have benefited from Qatar Charity’s projects over the past two years.

It is worth mentioning that more than 950,000 Rohingya refugees live in the camps of Cox’s Bazar. The government authorities of Bangladesh relocated some hundred refugees to Bhasan Char as part of a project to decongest the camps.
