YANGON, Myanmar—Myanmar and Bangladesh agreed to begin repatriating ethnic Rohingya Muslims who fled a crackdown in Buddhist-majority Myanmar, in a process that could take years to complete and could bar people from returning to their own homes. More than 620,000 people have crossed the border to Bangladesh since the crackdown began in August, some providing chilling accounts of killings and rape by Myanmar military forces after a series of militant attacks on government outposts.
