A high-profile delegation of the UN Security Council is coming to Bangladesh to visit Rohingya camps in Cox's Bazar.
UNSC President for April Gustavo Meza-Cuadra will lead the UNSC delegation, says an official.
They will witness the brutalities that the Rohingyas faced in Rakhine State of Myamnar and steps taken by the government of Bangladesh.
The delegation will arrive in Dhaka on Saturday afternoon and will go to Cox's Bazar on the same day.
They will stay in Cox's Bazar at night and will visit zero line along the Bangladesh-Myanmar border and visit Rohingya camps on Sunday.
The delegation members are expected to return to Dhaka from Cox's Bazar on Sunday evening after witnessing the Rohingya situation on the ground.
The delegation will leave for Naypyidaw on April 30 and go to Rakhine the next day.
The UN Security Council is composed of 15 members with five permanent members, China, France, Russian Federation, the United Kingdom, and the United States, and 10 non-permanent members.
The delegation members are expected to meet Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and top government officials on Monday morning before their departure, reports UNB.
The UNSC visit was originally scheduled for April 27-28.
Earlier, Bangladesh urged the UN Security Council to visit Myanmar and Bangladesh to witness the humanitarian situation of the Rohingyas amid continuous influx of the refugees.
Over 700,000 Rohingyas fled to Bangladesh, and the influx, though reduced in recent weeks, continues despite Myanmar's assurances of stopping violence in Rakhine.
On April 6, Hasina invited UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres to visit Bangladesh to see for himself the plight of Rohingyas who have taken shelter in Bangladesh amid persecution in Myanmar.
During the telephone conversation, she also sought UN cooperation in implementing the agreement signed between Bangladesh and Myanmar over the Rohingya repatriation.
