Protesting students in Bangladesh set the country's state broadcaster ablaze on Thursday, a day after Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina appeared on the network seeking to calm the escalating clashes that have killed at least 32 people and left over 2,500 injured. University students in Dhaka and other cities have been holding rallies for more than a week protesting the system of reservation in public sector jobs, including that for the relatives of war heroes, who fought for the country's independence from Pakistan in 1971.

The United States has escalated its travel advisory for Bangladesh to Level 4 — "Do Not Travel" — amid escalating civil unrest and violence that has rocked the South Asian nation. The advisory, issued by the US Department of State, advises American citizens to avoid travel to Bangladesh due to ongoing unrest, crime, and terrorism concerns. The advisory also authorises the voluntary departure of non-emergency US government employees and their families from Bangladesh, reflecting the gravity of the situation on the ground. This recommendation comes in the wake of severe clashes over government job allocations, which have resulted in over 40 deaths and hundreds of injuries.
