Bangladesh has denied entry to 31 Rohingya Muslims trying to enter from India and they are stuck in no-man's land on the border, as India cracks down on members of the community.
The stranded Rohingya, including women and children, had been living in the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir, according to Bangladeshi officials.
The 31 have been stuck on Bangladesh's border with India since Friday.
"We stopped them as they were crossing the border," Bangladeshi official Golam Kabir said.
"They've been on the zero line since the 18th of this month," he said, referring to the border.
Two rounds of talks on what to do with the 31 had "ended without any conclusive decision", Kabir said.
Many hundreds of thousands of members of mostly Buddhist Myanmar's Rohingya community have left their homes, most fleeing military crackdowns and discrimination.
Many have sought shelter in Bangladesh - where nearly one million Rohingyas live - but others have ended up in India, southeast Asia and beyond.
An Indian border force officer in Tripura state said on Sunday that they were providing food and clothing to the Rohingya, 16 of whom were children.
India estimates that 40,000 Rohingya are living in scattered settlements in various parts of the country.
But its Hindu nationalist government regards them as illegal aliens and a security threat, and has ordered that they be identified and repatriated.
The United Nations says conditions are not conducive for Rohingya to return to Myanmar.
In August, the United Nations accused the Myanmar military of mass killings and rapes of Rohingya with "genocidal intent" in a 2017 military operation that drove more than 700,000 of them into Bangladesh.
Myanmar has denied the accusations, saying its military launched a counter-insurgency operation after attacks on security posts by Muslim terrorists.
