At least 56 people were killed during violent unrest in Bangladesh today following the dismissal of the prime minister. The police and doctors let this be known, updating a previous assessment.
After four weeks of confrontation with those in power, the situation seems to be getting out of control in Bangladesh. Hundreds of thousands of anti-government demonstrators defy curfew and security forces this Monday by marching through the streets of the capital, Dhaka, the day after a bloody day marked by nearly a hundred deaths across the country.
The situation began to escalate when thousands of anti-government demonstrators stormed the palace of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, according to television footage broadcast by Bangladeshi channel Channel 24, showing crowds of people marching to enter the residence and wave to the camera.
