At least 180 ethnic Rohingya stranded at sea for weeks after leaving Bangladesh in November are feared dead, as their rickety boat is thought to have sunk this month, the United Nations refugee agency (UNHCR) said.

11月離開孟加拉後，在海上漂流數週的至少180名羅興亞人恐已遇難，因其搖搖晃晃的船隻被認為本月已沉沒，聯合國難民事務高級專員公署（UNHCR）說。

Citing unconfirmed reports, the agency said the "unseaworthy" boat probably sank after it went missing in the sea. "Relatives have lost contact," the UNHCR wrote on Twitter. "Those last in touch presume all are dead."

該署引述未經證實的報導指出，這艘「經不起風浪」的船隻在海上失蹤後，可能沉沒。「親屬失去聯繫，」UNHCR推文說。「那些最後接觸的人推測，所有人已罹難」。

More than 1 million Rohingya refugees from Myanmar are living in crowded camps in Bangladesh, including tens of thousands who fled Myanmar after its military conducted a deadly crackdown in 2017.

超過100萬來自緬甸的羅興亞難民，現在生活在孟加拉擁擠的難民營，其中包括數以萬計2017年在緬甸軍人進行血腥鎮壓後，逃離緬甸的人。

He wasn' t satisfied with just becoming a star on the court, though. Giannis' childhood taught him how difficult life is for poor people. Now, he is active in many community programs so he can give back to others. In 2018, he donated money and volunteered to hand out over 27,000 meals to people in need. In the following year, he also returned to Greece, where he organized a special charity event for children with cancer.

然而，他並不單單滿足於成為球場上的明星。揚尼斯的童年讓他知道對窮人來說生活是多麼地艱辛。如今，他活躍於許多社區服務以回饋他人。2018 年，他捐錢並自願發送超過兩萬七千份餐食給需要的人。在接下來的一年，他也回到希臘，為癌症病童籌劃一場特別的慈善活動。
