The security situation in Bangladesh is worsening. Mohammed Yunus now leads the interim government but the protests are unlikely to stop. There are several reported attacks against Hindu minorities in the country, with rioters also targeting the apartments of members of the Awami League. Rival political factions, as well as students calling for the immediate release of prisoners held by the authorities, will hold demonstrations in the coming weeks. Police presence has resumed somewhat but remain scarce, with the military refusing to act to prevent further rioting.
While international flights are open and train links have resumed their services, it is possible that they will become targeted as gathering centers for protests. Protesters have also targeted banks, public buildings and hotels around the country, with several clashes resulting in the shooting of civilians.
Several countries have advised against all but necessary travel to Bangladesh. International travelers must consider rethink any travel plans to Bangladesh for the time being, unless the situation improves.
Dyami will continue to monitor the unrest and are ready to assist.
