UN warns that 2 boats adrift in the Andaman Sea with 400 Rohingya aboard desperately need rescue

[Collection]An estimated 400 Rohingya Muslims, believed to be aboard two boats adrift in the Andaman Sea without adequate supplies, could die if not rescued, warns the UN refugee agency. The number of Rohingya Muslims fleeing by boats has been rising due to food ration cuts and gang violence. The boats embarked from Bangladesh and have been at sea for about two weeks. The whereabouts of one boat are unclear. The captain of one boat said they were out of food and water, with a damaged engine. Without assistance, there may be another tragedy like in December 2022.
