Massacre in Bangladesh
On August 5, 2024, following a major political shift, an interim government led by Dr. Yunus
assumed power. Since then, the law-and-order situation in the country has drastically
deteriorated. These incidents are largely attributed to state-sponsored actions by the
unregistered student party National Citizens Party (NCP), along with Jamaat-e-Islami and the
Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP).
