International Friendship Day: Petan and Abul were best friends since school. Then, last year, they were each separately forced to flee Myanmar. They lost contact, but searched for each other in Bangladesh's refugee settlements - finally reuniting. Friends just don't give up! https://t.co/3apsj58kYp

For International Friendship Day, Hamida & Johora say they've survived a lot of hardships much better having each other as a friend. It keeps them going from day to day. They were among hundreds of thousands of refugees to flee from Myanmar to Bangladesh in 2017. @UNESCO https://t.co/pEXoAMMmGb

Asma & Jinu Ara & Azida are living in the world's largest refugee settlement in Bangladesh. When their families fled Myanmar, they lost everything - including old friends. Now, new friendships are a cornerstone of their hopes for the future. International Friendship Day @UN https://t.co/8YLnPZYLb5

Ingenuity abundant among #Rohingya refugee children. They have the ability to be the engineers of tomorrow. We owe them a better future - one of hope, play and quality education. https://t.co/5wWHY78Iay

Heavy rains from 23-25 July 2018 triggered landslides in areas where refugees live in Cox’s Bazar district. Read UNHCR's monsoon emergency flash update here: https://t.co/SvAET51uko https://t.co/qkgVAFMjG5

UNHCR stands with refugees, and also with local communities in Cox’s Bazar. Today, 300 emergency kits were distributed to local monsoon-affected people in Jhilwanga Union in Sadar Upazila. https://t.co/aVtTBVdbln

Rain still falling in Cox's Bazar today. Community centres have offered shelter and support for refugees - but also somewhere to catch up on news, or for a break from worries. A game of carrom underway at a community centre run by UNHCR and BRAC in Kutupalong. @BRACworld https://t.co/BXtBKw4Nfx

#Rohingya children playing at a #UNHCR Transit Centre in Cox’s Bazar. Their families just arrived in Bangladesh in recent days. Here, they relax and show off their skills playing Chinlone - a traditional Myanmar game that uses a rattan ball. https://t.co/4iuIIHnKui

Rohingya refugee children in Cox’s Bazar are great at marbles. They focus and use strategy when they play. UNHCR wants them to have the opportunity to translate these skills into more structured learning by expanding educational opportunities in the camps. @Refugees @WorldBank https://t.co/xAnETZGBEq

A #Rohingya refugee in Cox’s Bazar still wears her school uniform from Myanmar, where she once went to school just beyond the distant hills. All children have the right to an education. #EducationForAll @Refugees @WorldBank https://t.co/lMzcLVak1K
