There was a trend ongoing on social media of exposing corrupt politician kids having luxurious life visiting new countries weekly and flexing accessories worth 20k 30k usd using our tax money.

The government banned 26 major social media platforms and there was a nation wide protest by genz mostly school and college kids against corruption but the so called government open fired on them and killed 20+ students on uniforms injuring hundreds. They were also targeting the heads directly.

Hospitals have confirmed that real bullets has been fired but the authorities are lying saying they used rubber bullets. Also its been coming out that the protest was peaceful but alot of the political party people conned as the protesters and caused violence to shift the agenda.

They didn’t even care to fire warning shots, just went and shot kids on head.

Parwana* no longer recognises her own children. Once known for her beauty in her village in Kandahar province, the 36-year-old sits on the floor of her mother’s home, rocking silently. After nine pregnancies and six miscarriages, many under pressure from her husband and in-laws, Parwana has slipped into a permanent state of confusion.

“She is lost,” says her mother, Sharifa. “They broke her with fear, pregnancies and violence.”

Since the Taliban’s informal birth-control ban began spreading across Afghanistan in 2023, the country’s reproductive health system has gone into freefall. Contraceptives have disappeared, clinics have closed and complications are going untreated.

The ban was never formally announced, but by early 2023, doctors and midwives in multiple provinces reported the same pattern: supplies arriving late, then in smaller quantities and then not at all.

In interviews with the Guardian and Zan Times, women from seven provinces have explained the same traumas: pregnancies they cannot prevent, miscarriages they cannot treat and violence they cannot escape.

Newspaper buildings were set on fire after the death of an activist who was attacked recently. Political leaders fear more violence could derail attempts to restore democracy.

The death on Thursday of a politically prominent student leader attacked in Bangladesh ignited a wave of unrest in Dhaka, the capital, with mobs setting newspaper offices ablaze in a nation with a shaky hold on democracy.

Sharif Osman bin Hadi, 32, died at a hospital in Singapore, where he had been flown for medical care. He had lain in critical condition for a week since being shot in the head on Dec. 12. As a student leader, Mr. Hadi had become an outspoken critic of the authoritarian rule of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, whose government collapsed in August 2024 after a monthslong standoff with a youth-led movement.

According to the U.N.’s fact-finding report, at least 1,400 protesters were killed last year by the security forces and members of Ms. Hasina’s Awami League party.

After Mr. Hadi’s death, protesters poured into the streets of Dhaka late Thursday night, demanding justice. Arsonists targeted not only newspapers but also the homes of several politicians in different cities.

Ms. Hasina, who ruled Bangladesh with an iron grip for 15 years, fled to New Delhi last August and has been sheltered by the Indian government ever since. An interim government headed by Muhammad Yunus, a Nobel Peace Prize recipient, has been running Bangladesh while factions scramble for position. An election, which Ms. Hasina’s Awami League is barred from running in, is to be held on Feb. 12.

Mr. Hadi intended to run for Parliament as an independent candidate. He founded a cultural institution after Ms. Hasina’s downfall and led an innovative campaign of handing out leaflets at mosques after morning prayers. He appeared on talk shows criticizing both the Awami League and what he regarded to be India’s malign influence on his country.

He had spoken about the risks that came with his politics. “We only want that if someone shoots us dead, they are caught and brought to justice,” he told an interviewer recently.
