A top UNHCR official in Bangladesh has raised alarm over the psychological toll of reduced humanitarian support on Rohingya refugees, describing a sharp decline in morale as essential aid becomes increasingly scarce. The warning highlights how financial constraints are deepening the crisis beyond immediate survival needs, leaving displaced families with dwindling prospects for stability. With basic services under strain, the representative underscores the urgent need for sustained international assistance to prevent further deterioration in living conditions. The plea comes as the refugee population faces prolonged uncertainty without access to critical resources.
