On Thursday the UAE launched a major campaign to help support hundreds of thousands of Rohingya refugees forced to flee Myanmar.
The nationwide drive aims to assist those from the minority Muslim group who now find themselves in camps in India, Bangladesh and elsewhere.
Under the initiative, organisers hope to provide education, food, health services, sanitation and shelter for some of the more than 1.2 million people.
