Dhaka, May 13 -- The ongoing conflict in Lebanon has dealt a devastating blow to the migrant workforce, with approximately 5,000 Bangladeshi labourers losing their livelihoods following recent Israeli attacks. A rights group revealed on Wednesday that these workers have been plunged into a "severe crisis."
