অন্তত ২৯ জন নিহত, ইন্টারনেট ব্ল্যাকআউট – July-36
This is a Bengali news article from the "July-36" archive documenting the events of July 18, 2024, during Bangladesh's quota reform protest movement. The article reports that at least 29 people were killed in clashes across the country as both students and ordinary citizens participated in demonstrations, and the government imposed a complete internet blackout around 9 PM, officially blaming a data center fire. Key events covered include widespread violent clashes between protesters, police, and ruling party groups (Chhatra League/Jubo League) across multiple cities; attacks and arson on government buildings including the BTV headquarters, metro rail stations, and the Bridge Building; the protest platform "Anti-Discrimination Student Movement" rejecting the Law Minister's dialogue offer; and a declared "Complete Shutdown" for the following day. International actors including the UN and US State Department also responded, with the UN calling on the government to protect demonstrators' rights.
