Rohingya refugees kept on a Bangladesh island fear they will be exposed to torrid conditions during the upcoming monsoon season, and are struggling with 'inadequate' health and education facilities, a Human Rights Watch report said Monday.

Rohingya refugees kept on a Bangladesh island fear they will be exposed to torrid conditions during the upcoming monsoon season, and are struggling with "inadequate" health and education facilities, a Human Rights Watch report said Monday.

The Bangladesh government has insisted the relocation is voluntary, with the island safe from cyclones and its facilities far better than the Cox's Bazar camps. Others feared the monsoon season starting in June could expose them to high winds and flooding on the island. "International donors should assist the Rohingya, but also insist that Bangladesh return refugees who want to return to the mainland or if experts say island conditions are too dangerous or unsustainable."
