The quota protest organisers called for mass protests today against the law enforcement killings and the ensuing government crackdown involving arbitrary arrests of thousands, as well resignation of key ministers and apology from the prime minister. And people have responded in their thousands throughout the country and in many different places in the capital city Dhaka. Here are just two images from Dhaka. Video from Kilgaon with chants of: “we have given blood. We will give more blood”. The picture is from Uttara. One other key chant heard at other protests In Dhaka I am told is: “Step down dictator, step down Hasina, one demand one demand, when you are going away Hasina?” (Hasina being the country’s prime minister)



Bangladesh's Minister of State for Information and Broadcasting @MAarafat71, stated, "𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐚𝐥𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐲 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐬 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐝𝐫𝐮𝐠𝐠𝐞𝐝 𝐬𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐞, 𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐮𝐩 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐬." Does he even understand what he is saying? How disrespectful it is to speak so callously about the innocent young men, who lost their lives due to police brutality. It is fortunate that the government itself provided subtitles for his statement. I kindly request members of the international press to take note of this obnoxious and unacceptable comment by Arafat, as well as his attempt to malign opposition political parties. It is unbelievable that someone can stoop so low.

BA 6047 Lieutenant Colonel Redwanul Islam was seen shooting at the student protestors yesterday. Redwanul, who served at @UNPeacekeeping a few years ago, also served with the @USTreasury sanctioned Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) and the Special Security Force (SSF) of Bangladesh. In the footage, BA 6047 Redwanul was captured shooting at unarmed civilians, which is a clear violation of the rules of engagement.

A nationwide curfew that was supposed to end Sunday in Bangladesh has been extended 'indefinitely'. Telecommunications have also been suspended - effectively isolating the country. Those measures are in place to deter protests against the government's jobs quota system - which have seen violent police crackdowns. At least 114 people have been killed, and thousands injured. The country's Supreme Court is now meeting and is expected to hand down a decision on the quota system in the coming hours. @tanvirbengal @AJEnglish with latest from Dhaka, Bangladesh.

১৯৭১ সালে মুক্তি যোদ্ধাদেরকে সাধারণ মানুষ সহযোগিতা করার কথা শুনেছি কিন্তু ২০২৪ সালের মুক্তি যোদ্ধাদের পাশে সাধারন মানুষ বিভিন্ন ভাবে দাড়াতে দেখা যাচ্ছে! আল্লাহ বিজয় দান করবে ইনশাল্লাহ🤲🤲 যাত্রাবাড়ী আড়তের ফল বিক্রেতারা তাদের ফল বিলিয়ে দিচ্ছে আন্দোলনরত ছাত্রদের মাঝে♥️♥️

BANGLADESH 🇧🇩 : The Government must immediately overturn the curfew with a ‘shoot on sight’ order that grants excessive powers to the security forces. The curfew must be urgently lifted, and all the people detained or arrested solely for exercising their right to protest peacefully should be immediately and unconditionally released. The authorities are obligated under international law to always exercise restraint and use no more force than is strictly necessary, proportionate and lawful in response to any escalation they may face. #SaveBangaldeshiStudents #ProtectTheProtest
