A little help from a friend: A migrant helps cut his friend's hair at a sports stadium that has been turned into a temporary shelter in Lhok Sukon, Aceh, on Tuesday. Hundreds of migrants abandoned at sea by smugglers in Southeast Asia have reached land and relative safety in the past two days. But an estimated 6,000 Bangladeshis and Rohingya Muslims from Myanmar remain trapped in crowded, wooden boats, migrant officials and activists said. With food and clean water running low, some could be in grave danger. (AP/S.
