Renewed violence in Bangladesh has resulted in at least eight deaths and numerous injuries as student protesters clashed with police and ruling party supporters demanding the resignation of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. The protests, which began over a controversial government jobs quota, have escalated, leading to a total death toll of at least 217 since July. Authorities have responded with internet blackouts, school closures, and a curfew, while protesters urged a non-cooperation movement against the government. Clashes were reported in various districts, including Dhaka, as activists from the ruling Awami League confronted opposition protesters. The government has promised justice for the violence but has called for dialogue, which protesters have rejected. The situation remains tense as both sides mobilize supporters, raising fears of further violence.
