Annex 1: Timeline of the protests in July–August 2024

This document is an annex from a Country of Origin Information (COI) Report on Bangladesh, published by the European Union Agency for Asylum (EUAA) in August 2025. It provides a chronological timeline of the student-led protests that took place in Bangladesh between July 1 and August 5, 2024. The timeline covers key phases of the protests, including the initial demonstrations, escalating clashes with the Chhatra League (a pro-government student group) and law enforcement, the imposition of a "shoot-on-sight" curfew on July 20, the temporary overturning of the quota system that triggered the protests, and the eventual flight of Prime Minister Hasina from the country on August 4–5, 2024. The document notes it is not exhaustive, as some violent events could not be tied to specific dates.
