This happened 30 minutes ago and details may change rapidly over the next few hours. See the link above. I'm not in Bangladesh. I hear that people in the country are relieved, and cautiously optimistic.


Key points:

  • PM has resigned
  • local media reports she fled the country
  • protestors stormed her compound
  • interim government is being created

Statement by Chief of Army Staff

  • representatives from all major parties were present in discussions for interim government
  • army will begin investigations on all deaths and crimes during the protest. This should include the extrajudicial killings

Concerns

  • fear of violence against the supporters of the ruling party

Thank you, can you make a post or comment in the community so I can add you?

I see, we can focus on the community then and push for an instance if it becomes more appropriate in the future

Wow, where do they live?

Thanks for the help. I'm not currently in the country unfortunately. I spoke with someone who is self hosting in Bangladesh, and I will suggest an instance like that. I suppose that it is more difficult to set up a server in Bangladesh, so it is a long term goal. In the meantime, this can be a backup to the reddit one

I am curious too. It has been hard to get much information out between the internet shutdown, the language barrier, and the lack of press freedoms. I will post a link if I find anything!

Excellent answer!

Does someone have a good guide? The guides I find are a few years old. I will relay this to them in the meantime
