The protests have been ongoing for months, with demonstrators demanding political reform and calling for the government to address issues such as corruption and human rights abuses.

As tensions continue to rise in Bangladesh, it remains to be seen how the government will respond to the growing pressure from the public. Stay tuned for further updates on this developing story.
