Rohingya drift for a month at sea after boat engine fails

Dozens of Rohingya refugees have drifted on to a beach in western Indonesia after their boat broke down.

The boat with 57 men on board landed in Aceh province.

Many Rohingya Muslims fled Myanmar in 2017 to escape a campaign of genocide by the country's military. In recent months, they have been trying to escape refugee camps in Bangladesh.
