Explore shah parir island

Shapuree, Shahpori, Shah Parir Island is located in Bangladesh at the mouth of the Naf River, a maritime-boundary between Bangladesh and Myanmar. Historically, it was claimed by the British during the First Anglo-Burmese War. The island forms an extension of the peninsula of Teknaf Upazila. The island plays an important role as a likely landing place for boatloads of refugees crossing the Naf River from Myanmar, attempting to reach Bangladesh.
