Escalating Protests in Bangladesh Result in Over 20 Deaths and Hundreds Injured

 

The unrest started in July when students called for an end to a quota system that reserved 30% of government jobs for relatives of veterans. The situation escalated into widespread violence, prompting authorities to close schools and universities, block internet access, and impose a shoot-on-sight curfew. Despite these measures, the protests have continued, with demonstrators urging non-cooperation by not paying taxes or utility bills and not showing up for work.

The violence has spread to multiple districts, with reports of crude bombs being detonated and gunshots heard.

The ongoing clashes have resulted in significant casualties and widespread disruption, highlighting the deepening political crisis in Bangladesh.
