Bangladeshi students call for nationwide civil disobedience

A student carrying the Bangladeshi flag takes part in a march as demonstrators demand justice for victims arrested and killed in the recent nationwide protests against job quotas, in Dhaka on Aug. 3, 2024.

Student leaders rallied Bangladeshis on Saturday for a nationwide civil disobedience campaign as Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's government weathered a worsening backlash over a deadly police crackdown on protesters.
